TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention relates to RNAi and related methods, e.g., methods of making and using iRNA agents.

BACKGROUND

RNA interference or “RNAi” is a term initially coined by Fire and co-workers to describe the observation that double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) can block gene expression when it is introduced into worms (Fire et al. (1998) Nature 391, 806-811). Short dsRNA directs gene-specific, post-transcriptional silencing in many organisms, including vertebrates, and has provided a new tool for studying gene function. RNAi may involve mRNA degradation.

SUMMARY

A number of advances related to the application of RNAi to the treatment of subjects are disclosed herein. For example, the invention features iRNA agents targeted to specific genes; palindromic iRNA agents; iRNA agents having non canonical monomer pairings; iRNA agents having particular structures or architectures e.g., the Z-X-Y or asymmetrical iRNA agents described herein; drug delivery conjugates for the delivery of iRNA agents; amphipathic substances for the delivery of iRNA agents, as well as iRNA agents having chemical modifications for optimizing a property of the iRNA agent. The invention features each of these advances broadly as well as in combinations. For example, an iRNA agent targeted to a specific gene can also include one or more of a palindrome, non canonical, Z-X-Y, or asymmetric structure. Other nonlimiting examples of combinations include an asymmetric structure combined with a chemical modification, or formulations or methods or routes of delivery combined with, e.g., chemical modifications or architectures described herein.

The first and second target RNA regions can also be on variant transcripts of an oncogene or include different mutations of a tumor suppressor gene transcript. In one embodiment, the oncogene, or tumor suppressor gene is expressed in the liver. In addition, the first and second target RNA regions correspond to hot-spots for genetic variation.

In another aspect, the invention features a mixture of varied iRNA agent molecules, including one iRNA agent that includes a first sequence and a second sequence sufficiently complementary to each other to hybridize, and where the first sequence is complementary to a first target RNA region and the second sequence is complementary to a second target RNA region. The mixture also includes at least one additional iRNA agent variety that includes a third sequence and a fourth sequence sufficiently complementary to each other to hybridize, and where the third sequence is complementary to a third target RNA region and the fourth sequence is complementary to a fourth target RNA region. In addition, the first or second sequence is sufficiently complementary to the third or fourth sequence to be capable of hybridizing to each other. In one embodiment, at least one, two, three or all four of the target RNA regions are expressed in the liver.

The method includes obtaining or providing information about a region of an RNA of a target gene (e.g., a viral or human gene, or an oncogene or tumor suppressor, e.g., p53), where the region has high variability or mutational frequency (e.g., in humans). In addition, information about a plurality of RNA targets within the region is obtained or provided, where each RNA target corresponds to a different variant or mutant of the gene (e.g., a region including the codon encoding p53 248Q and/or p53 249S). The iRNA agent is constructed such that a first sequence is complementary to a first of the plurality of variant RNA targets (e.g., encoding 249Q) and a second sequence is complementary to a second of the plurality of variant RNA targets (e.g., encoding 249S). The first and second sequences are sufficiently complementary to hybridize. In certain embodiments, the target gene can be a viral or human gene expressed in the liver.

In one embodiment, sequence analysis, e.g., to identify common mutants in the target gene, is used to identify a region of the target gene that has high variability or mutational frequency. For example, sequence analysis can be used to identify regions of apoB-100 or beta catenin that have high variability or mutational frequency. In another embodiment, the region of the target gene having high variability or mutational frequency is identified by obtaining or providing genotype information about the target gene from a population. In another embodiment, the genotype information can be from a population suffering from a liver disorder, such as hepatocellular carcinoma or hepatoblastoma.

Another aspect of the invention features a method of modulating expression, e.g., downregulating or silencing, a target gene, by providing an iRNA agent that has a first sequence and a second sequence sufficiently complementary to each other to hybridize. In addition, the first sequence is complementary to a first target RNA region and the second sequence is complementary to a second target RNA region.

The method includes providing an iRNA agent selected by identifying a first region in a first target RNA of the plurality and a second region in a second target RNA of the plurality, where the first and second regions are sufficiently complementary to each other to be capable of hybridizing.

In another aspect of the invention, an iRNA agent molecule includes a first sequence complementary to a first variant RNA target region and a second sequence complementary to a second variant RNA target region, and the first and second variant RNA target regions correspond to first and second variants or mutants of a target gene. In certain embodiments, the target gene is an apoB-100, beta catenin, or glucose-6 phosphatase gene.

In another embodiment, the first and second variant target RNA regions include allelic variants of the target gene.

In another embodiment, the first and second variant RNA target regions comprise mutations (e.g., point mutations) or polymorphisms of the target gene.

In one embodiment, the first and second variant RNA target regions correspond to hot-spots for genetic variation.

Another aspect of the invention features a plurality (e.g., a panel or bank) of iRNA agents. Each of the iRNA agents of the plurality includes a first sequence complementary to a first variant target RNA region and a second sequence complementary to a second variant target RNA region, where the first and second variant target RNA regions correspond to first and second variants of a target gene. In certain embodiments, the variants are allelic variants of the target gene.

Another aspect of the invention provides a method of identifying an iRNA agent for treating a subject. The method includes providing or obtaining information, e.g., a genotype, about a target gene, providing or obtaining information about a plurality (e.g., panel or bank) of iRNA agents, comparing the information about the target gene to information about the plurality of iRNA agents, and selecting one or more of the plurality of iRNA agents for treating the subject. Each of the plurality of iRNA agents includes a first sequence complementary to a first variant target RNA region and a second sequence complementary to a second variant target RNA region, and the first and second variant target RNA regions correspond to first and second variants of the target gene. The target gene can be an endogenous gene of the subject or a viral gene. The information about the plurality of iRNA agents can be the sequence of the first or second sequence of one or more of the plurality.

In certain embodiments, at least one of the selected iRNA agents includes a sequence capable of hybridizing to an RNA region corresponding to the target gene, and at least one of the selected iRNA agents comprises a sequence capable of hybridizing to an RNA region corresponding to a variant or mutant of the target gene.

In one aspect, the invention relates to compositions and methods for silencing genes expressed in the liver, e.g., to treat disorders of or related to the liver. An iRNA agent composition of the invention can be one which has been modified to alter distribution in favor of the liver.

In another aspect, the invention relates to iRNA agents that can target more than one RNA region, and methods of using and making the iRNA agents. In one embodiment, the RNA is from a gene that is active in the liver, e.g., apoB-100, glucose-6-phosphatase, beta-catenin, or Hepatitis C virus (HCV).

In another aspect, an iRNA agent includes a first and second sequence that are sufficiently complementary to each other to hybridize. The first sequence can be complementary to a first target RNA region and the second sequence can be complementary to a second target RNA region. For example, the first sequence can be complementary to a first target apoB-100 RNA region and the second sequence can be complementary to a second target apoB-100 RNA region.

In one embodiment, the first target RNA region is encoded by a first gene, e.g., a gene expressed in the liver, and the second target RNA region is encoded by a second gene, e.g., a second gene expressed in the liver. In another embodiment, the first and second target RNA regions are different regions of an RNA from a single gene, e.g., a single gene that is at least expressed in the liver. In another embodiment, the first and second sequences differ by at least one and no more than six nucleotides.

In another embodiment, sequence analysis, e.g., to identify common mutants in the target gene, is used to identify a region of the target gene that has high variability or mutational frequency. For example, sequence analysis can be used to identify regions of aopB-100 or beta catenin that have high variability or mutational frequency. In another embodiment, the region of the target gene having high variability or mutational frequency is identified by obtaining or providing genotype information about the target gene from a population. In particular, the genotype information can be from a population suffering from a liver disorder, such as hepatocellular carcinoma or hepatoblastoma.

In another aspect, the invention features a method for reducing apoB-100 levels in a subject, e.g., a mammal, such as a human. The method includes administering to a subject an iRNA agent which targets apoB-100. The iRNA agent can be one described here, and can be a dsRNA that has a sequence that is substantially identical to a sequence of the apoB-100 gene. The iRNA can be less than 30 nucleotides in length, e.g., 21-23 nucleotides. Preferably, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length. In one embodiment, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length, and the duplex region of the iRNA is 19 nucleotides. In another embodiment, the iRNA is greater than 30 nucleotides in length.

In a preferred embodiment, the subject is treated with an iRNA agent which targets one of the sequences listed in Tables 5 and 6. In a preferred embodiment it targets both sequences of a palindromic pair provided in Tables 5 and 6. The most preferred targets are listed in descending order of preferrability, in other words, the more preferred targets are listed earlier in Tables 5 and 6.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will include regions, or strands, which are complementary to a pair in Tables 5 and 6. In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will include regions complementary to the palindromic pairs of Tables 5 and 6 as a duplex region.

In a preferred embodiment the duplex region of the iRNA agent will target a sequence listed in Tables 5 and 6 but will not be perfectly complementary with the target sequence, e.g., it will not be complementary at at least 1 base pair. Preferably it will have no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 bases, in total, or per strand, which do not hybridize with the target sequence

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent includes overhangs, e.g., 3′ or 5′ overhangs, preferably one or more 3′ overhangs. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

The iRNA agent that targets apoB-100 can be administered in an amount sufficient to reduce expression of apoB-100 mRNA. In one embodiment, the iRNA agent is administered in an amount sufficient to reduce expression of apoB-100 protein (e.g., by at least 2%, 4%, 6%, 10%, 15%, 20%). Preferably, the iRNA agent does not reduce expression of apoB-48 mRNA or protein. This can be effected, e.g., by selection of an iRNA agent which specifically targets the nucleotides subject to RNA editing in the apoB-100 transcript.

The iRNA agent that targets apoB-100 can be administered to a subject, wherein the subject is suffering from a disorder characterized by elevated or otherwise unwanted expression of apoB-100, elevated or otherwise unwanted levels of cholesterol, and/or disregulation of lipid metabolism. The iRNA agent can be administered to an individual at risk for the disorder to delay onset of the disorder or a symptom of the disorder. These disorders include HDL/LDL cholesterol imbalance; dyslipidemias, e.g., familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL), acquired hyperlipidemia; hypercholestorolemia; statin-resistant hypercholesterolemia; coronary artery disease (CAD) coronary heart disease (CHD) atherosclerosis. In one embodiment, the iRNA that targets apoB-100 is administered to a subject suffering from statin-resistant hypercholesterolemia.

The apoB-100 iRNA agent can be administered in an amount sufficient to reduce levels of serum LDL-C and/or HDL-C and/or total cholesterol in a subject. For example, the iRNA is administered in an amount sufficient to decrease total cholesterol by at least 0.5%, 1%, 2.5%, 5%, 10% in the subject. In one embodiment, the iRNA agent is administered in an amount sufficient to reduce the risk of myocardial infarction the subject.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent is administered repeatedly. Administration of an iRNA agent can be carried out over a range of time periods. It can be administered daily, once every few days, weekly, or monthly. The timing of administration can vary from patient to patient, depending on such factors as the severity of a patient's symptoms. For example, an effective dose of an iRNA agent can be administered to a patient once a month for an indefinite period of time, or until the patient no longer requires therapy. In addition, sustained release compositions containing an iRNA agent can be used to maintain a relatively constant dosage in the patient's blood.

In one embodiment, the iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver, and apoB expression level are decreased in the liver following administration of the apoB iRNA agent. For example, the iRNA agent can be complexed with a moiety that targets the liver, e.g., an antibody or ligand that binds a receptor on the liver.

The iRNA agent, particularly an iRNA agent that targets apoB, beta-catenin or glucose-6-phosphatase RNA, can be targeted to the liver, for example by associating, e.g., conjugating the iRNA agent to a lipophilic moiety, e.g., a lipid, cholesterol, oleyl, retinyl, or cholesteryl residue (see Table 1). Other lipophilic moieties that can be associated, e.g., conjugated with the iRNA agent include cholic acid, adamantane acetic acid, 1-pyrene butyric acid, dihydrotestosterone, 1,3-Bis-O(hexadecyl)glycerol, geranyloxyhexyl group, hexadecylglycerol, borneol, menthol, 1,3-propanediol, heptadecyl group, palmitic acid, myristic acid, O3-(oleoyl)lithocholic acid, O3-(oleoyl)cholenic acid, dimethoxytrityl, or phenoxazine. In one embodiment, the iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver by associating, e.g., conjugating, the iRNA agent to a low-density lipoprotein (LDL), e.g., a lactosylated LDL. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver by associating, e.g., conjugating, the iRNA agent to a polymeric carrier complex with sugar residues.

In another embodiment, the iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver by associating, e.g., conjugating, the iRNA agent to a liposome complexed with sugar residues. A targeting agent that incorporates a sugar, e.g., galactose and/or analogues thereof, is particularly useful. These agents target, in particular, the parenchymal cells of the liver (see Table 1). In a preferred embodiment, the targeting moiety includes more than one galactose moiety, preferably two or three. Preferably, the targeting moiety includes 3 galactose moieties, e.g., spaced about 15 angstroms from each other. The targeting moiety can be lactose. A lactose is a glucose coupled to a galactose. Preferably, the targeting moiety includes three lactoses. The targeting moiety can also be N-Acetyl-Galactosamine, N—Ac-Glucosamine. A mannose, or mannose-6-phosphate targeting moiety can be used for macrophage targeting.

The targeting agent can be linked directly, e.g., covalently or non covalently, to the iRNA agent, or to another delivery or formulation modality, e.g., a liposome. E.g., the iRNA agents with or without a targeting moiety can be incorporated into a delivery modality, e.g., a liposome, with or without a targeting moiety.

It is particularly preferred to use an iRNA conjugated to a lipophilic molecule to conjugate to an iRNA agent that targets apoB, beta-catenin or glucose-6-phosphatase iRNA targeting agent.

In one embodiment, the iRNA agent has been modified, or is associated with a delivery agent, e.g., a delivery agent described herein, e.g., a liposome, which has been modified to alter distribution in favor of the liver. In one embodiment, the modification mediates association with a serum albumin (SA), e.g., a human serum albumin (HSA), or a fragment thereof.

The iRNA agent, particularly an iRNA agent that targets apoB, beta-catenin or glucose-6-phosphatase RNA, can be targeted to the liver, for example by associating, e.g., conjugating the iRNA agent to an SA molecule, e.g., an HSA molecule, or a fragment thereof. In one embodiment, the iRNA agent or composition thereof has an affinity for an SA, e.g., HSA, which is sufficiently high such that its levels in the liver are at least 10, 20, 30, 50, or 100% greater in the presence of SA, e.g., HSA, or is such that addition of exogenous SA will increase delivery to the liver. These criteria can be measured, e.g., by testing distribution in a mouse in the presence or absence of exogenous mouse or human SA.

The SA, e.g., HSA, targeting agent can be linked directly, e.g., covalently or non-covalently, to the iRNA agent, or to another delivery or formulation modality, e.g., a liposome. E.g., the iRNA agents with or without a targeting moiety can be incorporated into a delivery modality, e.g., a liposome, with or without a targeting moiety.

It is particularly preferred to use an iRNA conjugated to an SA, e.g., an HSA, molecule wherein the iRNA agent is an apoB, beta-catenin or glucose-6-phosphatase iRNA targeting agent.

In another aspect, the invention features, a method for reducing glucose-6-phosphatase levels in a subject, e.g., a mammal, such as a human. The method includes administering to a subject an iRNA agent which targets glucose-6-phosphatase. The iRNA agent can be a dsRNA that has a sequence that is substantially identical to a sequence of the glucose-6-phosphatase gene.

In a preferred embodiment, the subject is treated with an iRNA agent which targets one of the sequences listed in Table 7.

In a preferred embodiment the duplex region of the iRNA agent will target a sequence listed in Table 7 but will not be perfectly complementary with the target sequence, e.g., it will not be complementary at at least 1 base pair. Preferably it will have no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 bases, in total, or per strand, which do not hybridize with the target sequence

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent includes overhangs, e.g., 3′ or 5′ overhangs, preferably one or more 3′ overhangs. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

Table 7 refers to sequences from human glucose-6-phosphatase. Table 8 refers to sequences from rat glucose-6-phosphatase. The sequences from table 8 can be used, e.g., in experiments with rats or cultured rat cells.

In a preferred embodiment iRNA agent can have any architecture, e.g., architecture described herein. E.g., it can be incorporated into an iRNA agent having an overhang structure, overall length, hairpin vs. two-strand structure, as described herein. In addition, monomers other than naturally occurring ribonucleotides can be used in the selected iRNA agent.

The iRNA that targets glucose-6-phosphatase can be administered in an amount sufficient to reduce expression of glucose-6-phosphatase mRNA.

The iRNA that targets glucose-6-phosphatase can be administered to a subject to inhibit hepatic glucose production, for the treatment of glucose-metabolism-related disorders, such as diabetes, e.g., type-2-diabetes mellitus. The iRNA agent can be administered to an individual at risk for the disorder to delay onset of the disorder or a symptom of the disorder.

In other embodiments, iRNA agents having sequence similarity to the following genes can also be used to inhibit hepatic glucose production. These other genes include “forkhead homologue in rhabdomyosarcoma (FKHR); glucagon; glucagon receptor; glycogen phosphorylase; PPAR-Gamma Coactivator (PGC-1); Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase; glucose-6-phosphate locator; glucokinase inhibitory regulatory protein; and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK).

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent is administered repeatedly. Administration of an iRNA agent can be carried out over a range of time periods. It can be administered daily, once every few days, weekly, or monthly. The timing of administration can vary from patient to patient, depending on such factors as the severity of a patient's symptoms. For example, an effective dose of an iRNA agent can be administered to a patient once a month for an indefinite period of time, or until the patient no longer requires therapy. In addition, sustained release compositions containing an iRNA agent can be used to maintain a relatively constant dosage in the patient's blood.

In one embodiment, the iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver, and beta-catenin expression level are decreased in the liver following administration of the beta-catenin iRNA agent. For example, the iRNA agent can be complexed with a moiety that targets the liver, e.g., an antibody or ligand that binds a receptor on the liver.

In another aspect, the invention provides methods to treat liver disorders, e.g., disorders characterized by unwanted cell proliferation, hematological disorders, disorders characterized by inflammation disorders, and metabolic or viral diseases or disorders of the liver. A proliferation disorder of the liver can be, for example, a benign or malignant disorder, e.g., a cancer, e.g, a hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), hepatic metastasis, or hepatoblastoma. A hepatic hematology or inflammation disorder can be a disorder involving clotting factors, a complement-mediated inflammation or a fibrosis, for example. Metabolic diseases of the liver can include dyslipidemias, and irregularities in glucose regulation. Viral diseases of the liver can include hepatitis C or hepatitis B. In one embodiment, a liver disorder is treated by administering one or more iRNA agents that have a sequence that is substantially identical to a sequence in a gene involved in the liver disorder.

In one embodiment an iRNA agent to treat a liver disorder has a sequence which is substantially identical to a sequence of the beta-catenin or c-jun gene. In another embodiment, such as for the treatment of hepatitis C or hepatitis B, the iRNA agent can have a sequence that is substantially identical to a sequence of a gene of the hepatitis C virus or the hepatitis B virus, respectively. For example, the iRNA agent can target the 5′ core region of HCV. This region lies just downstream of the ribosomal toe-print straddling the initiator methionine. Alternatively, an iRNA agent of the invention can target any one of the nonstructural proteins of HCV: NS3, 4A, 4B, 5A, or 5B. For the treatment of hepatitis B, an iRNA agent can target the protein X (HBx) gene, for example.

In a preferred embodiment, the subject is treated with an iRNA agent which targets one of the sequences listed in Table 10. In a preferred embodiment it targets both sequences of a palindromic pair provided in Table 10. The most preferred targets are listed in descending order of preferrability, in other words, the more preferred targets are listed earlier in Table 10.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will include regions, or strands, which are complementary to a pair in Table 10. In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will include regions complementary to the palindromic pairs of Table 10 as a duplex region.

In a preferred embodiment the duplex region of the iRNA agent will target a sequence listed in Table 10, but will not be perfectly complementary with the target sequence, e.g., it will not be complementary at at least 1 base pair. Preferably it will have no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 bases, in total, or per strand, which do not hybridize with the target sequence

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent includes overhangs, e.g., 3′ or 5′ overhangs, preferably one or more 3′ overhangs. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

In another aspect, an iRNA agent can be administered to modulate blood clotting, e.g., to reduce the tendency to form a blood clot. In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent targets Factor V expression, preferably in the liver. One or more iRNA agents can be used to target a wild type allele, a mutant allele, e.g., the Leiden Factor V allele, or both. Such administration can be used to treat or prevent venous thrombosis, e.g., deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, or another disorder caused by elevated or otherwise unwanted expression of Factor V, in, e.g., the liver. In one embodiment the iRNA agent can treat a subject, e.g., a human who has Factor V Leiden or other genetic trait associated with an unwanted tendency to form blood clots.

In a preferred embodiment administration of an iRNA agent which targets Factor V is with the administration of a second treatment, e.g, a treatment which reduces the tendency of the blood to clot, e.g., the administration of heparin or of a low molecular weight heparin.

In one embodiment, the iRNA agent that targets Factor V can be used as a prophylaxis in patients, e.g., patients with Factor V Leiden, who are placed at risk for a thrombosis, e.g., those about to undergo surgery, in particular those about to undergo high-risk surgical procedures known to be associated with formation of venous thrombosis, those about to undergo a prolonged period of relative inactivity, e.g., on a motor vehicle, train or airplane flight, e.g., a flight or other trip lasting more than three or five hours. Such a treatment can be an adjunct to the therapeutic use of low molecular weight (LMW) heparin prophylaxis.

In another embodiment, the iRNA agent that targets Factor V can be administered to patients with Factor V Leiden to treat deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism (PE). Such a treatment can be an adjunct to (or can replace) therapeutic uses of heparin or coumadin. The treatment can be administered by inhalation or generally by pulmonary routes.

In a preferred embodiment, an iRNA agent administered to treat a liver disorder is targeted to the liver. For example, the iRNA agent can be complexed with a targeting moiety, e.g., an antibody or ligand that recognizes a liver-specific receptor.

The invention also includes preparations, including substantially pure or pharmaceutically acceptable preparations of iRNA agents which silence any of the genes discussed herein and in particular for any of apoB-100, glucose-6-phosphatase, beta-catenin, factor V, or any of the HVC genes discussed herein.

The methods and compositions of the invention, e.g., the methods and compositions to treat diseases and disorders of the liver described herein, can be used with any of the iRNA agents described. In addition, the methods and compositions of the invention can be used for the treatment of any disease or disorder described herein, and for the treatment of any subject, e.g., any animal, any mammal, such as any human.

In another aspect, the invention features, a method of selecting two sequences or strands for use in an iRNA agent. The method includes:

providing a first candidate sequence and a second candidate sequence;

determining the value of a parameter which is a function of the number of palindromic pairs between the first and second sequence, wherein a palindromic pair is a nucleotide on said first sequence which, when the sequences are aligned in anti-parallel orientation, will hybridize with a nucleotide on said second sequence;

comparing the number with a predetermined reference value, and if the number has a predetermined relationship with the reference, e.g., if it is the same or greater, selecting the sequences for use in an iRNA agent. In most cases each of the two sequences will be completely complementary with a target sequence (though as described elsewhere herein that may not always be the case, there may not be perfect complementarity with one or both of the target sequences) and will have sufficient complementarity with each other to form a duplex. The parameter can be derived e.g., by directly determining the number of palindromic pairs, e.g., by inspection or by the use of a computer program which compares or analyses sequence. The parameter can also be determined less directly, and include e.g., calculation of or measurement of the Tm or other value related to the free energy of association or dissociation of a duplex.

In a preferred embodiment the determination can be performed on a target sequence, e.g., a genomic sequence. In such embodiments the selected sequence is converted to its complement in the iRNA agent.

In a preferred embodiment the first and second sequences are selected from the sequence of a single target gene. In other embodiments the first sequence is selected from the sequence of a first target gene and the second sequence is selected from the target of a second target gene.

In a preferred embodiment the method includes comparing blocks of sequence, e.g., blocks which are between 15 and 25 nucleotides in length, and preferably 19, 20, or 21, and most preferably 19 nucleotides in length, to determine if they are suitable for use, e.g., if they possess sufficient palindromic pairs.

In a preferred embodiment the first and second sequences are divided into a plurality of regions, e.g., terminal regions and a middle region disposed between the terminal regions and where in the reference value, or the predetermined relationship to the reference value, is different for at least two regions. E.g., the first and second sequences, when aligned in anti-parallel orientation, are divided into terminal regions each of a selected number of base pairs, e.g., 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, and a middle region, and the reference value for the terminal regions is higher than for the middle regions. In other words, a higher number or proportion of palindromic pairs is required in the terminal regions.

In a preferred embodiment the first and second sequences are gene sequences thus the complements of the sequences will be used in a iRNA agent.

In a preferred embodiment hybridize means a classical Watson-Crick pairing. In other embodiments hybridize can include non-Watson-Crick paring, e.g., parings seen in micro RNA precursors.

In a preferred embodiment the method includes the addition of nucleotides to form overhangs, e.g., 3′ or 5′ overhangs, preferably one or more 3′ overhangs. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

In a preferred embodiment the method is used to select all or part of a iRNA agent. The selected sequences can be incorporated into an iRNA agent having any architecture, e.g., an architecture described herein. E.g., it can be incorporated into an iRNA agent having an overhang structure, overall length, hairpin vs. two-strand structure, as described herein. In addition, monomers other than naturally occurring ribonucleotides can be used in the selected iRNA agent.

Preferred iRNA agents of this method will target genes expressed in the liver, e.g., one of the genes disclosed herein, e.g., apo B, Beta catenin, an HVC gene, or glucose 6 phosphatase.

In another aspect, the invention features, an iRNA agent, determined, made, or selected by a method described herein.

The methods and compositions of the invention, e.g., the methods and iRNA compositions to treat liver-based diseases described herein, can be used with any dosage and/or formulation described herein, as well as with any route of administration described herein.

The invention also provides for the use of an iRNA agent which includes monomers which can form other than a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with another monomer, e.g., a monomer on another strand.

The use of “other than canonical Watson-Crick pairing” between monomers of a duplex can be used to control, often to promote, melting of all or part of a duplex. The iRNA agent can include a monomer at a selected or constrained position that results in a first level of stability in the iRNA agent duplex (e.g., between the two separate molecules of a double stranded iRNA agent) and a second level of stability in a duplex between a sequence of an iRNA agent and another sequence molecule, e.g., a target or off-target sequence in a subject. In some cases the second duplex has a relatively greater level of stability, e.g., in a duplex between an anti-sense sequence of an iRNA agent and a target mRNA. In this case one or more of the monomers, the position of the monomers in the iRNA agent, and the target sequence (sometimes referred to herein as the selection or constraint parameters), are selected such that the iRNA agent duplex is has a comparatively lower free energy of association (which while not wishing to be bound by mechanism or theory, is believed to contribute to efficacy by promoting disassociation of the duplex iRNA agent in the context of the RISC) while the duplex formed between an anti-sense targeting sequence and its target sequence, has a relatively higher free energy of association (which while not wishing to be bound by mechanism or theory, is believed to contribute to efficacy by promoting association of the anti-sense sequence and the target RNA).

In other cases the second duplex has a relatively lower level of stability, e.g., in a duplex between a sense sequence of an iRNA agent and an off-target mRNA. In this case one or more of the monomers, the position of the monomers in the iRNA agent, and an off-target sequence, are selected such that the iRNA agent duplex is has a comparatively higher free energy of association while the duplex formed between a sense targeting sequence and its off-target sequence, has a relatively lower free energy of association (which while not wishing to be bound by mechanism or theory, is believed to reduce the level of off-target silencing by contribute to efficacy by promoting disassociation of the duplex formed by the sense strand and the off-target sequence).

Thus, inherent in the structure of the iRNA agent is the property of having a first stability for the intra-iRNA agent duplex and a second stability for a duplex formed between a sequence from the iRNA agent and another RNA, e.g., a target mRNA. As discussed above, this can be accomplished by judicious selection of one or more of the monomers at a selected or constrained position, the selection of the position in the duplex to place the selected or constrained position, and selection of the sequence of a target sequence (e.g., the particular region of a target gene which is to be targeted). The iRNA agent sequences which satisfy these requirements are sometimes referred herein as constrained sequences. Exercise of the constraint or selection parameters can be, e.g., by inspection, or by computer assisted methods. Exercise of the parameters can result in selection of a target sequence and of particular monomers to give a desired result in terms of the stability, or relative stability, of a duplex.

Thus, in one aspect, the invention features, an iRNA agent which includes: a first sequence which targets a first target region and a second sequence which targets a second target region. The first and second sequences have sufficient complementarity to each other to hybridize, e.g., under physiological conditions, e.g., under physiological conditions but not in contact with a helicase or other unwinding enzyme. In a duplex region of the iRNA agent, at a selected or constrained position, the first target region has a first monomer, and the second target region has a second monomer. The first and second monomers occupy complementary or corresponding positions. One, and preferably both monomers are selected such that the stability of the pairing of the monomers contribute to a duplex between the first and second sequence will differ form the stability of the pairing between the first or second sequence with a target sequence.

Usually, the monomers will be selected (selection of the target sequence may be required as well) such that they form a pairing in the iRNA agent duplex which has a lower free energy of dissociation, and a lower Tm, than will be possessed by the paring of the monomer with its complementary monomer in a duplex between the iRNA agent sequence and a target RNA duplex.

The constraint placed upon the monomers can be applied at a selected site or at more than one selected site. By way of example, the constraint can be applied at more than 1, but less than 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 sites in an iRNA agent duplex.

A constrained or selected site can be present at a number of positions in the iRNA agent duplex. E.g., a constrained or selected site can be present within 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from either end, 3′ or 5′ of a duplexed sequence. A constrained or selected site can be present in the middle of the duplex region, e.g., it can be more than 3, 4, 5, or 6, positions from the end of a duplexed region.

The iRNA agent can be selected to target a broad spectrum of genes, including any of the genes described herein.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent has an architecture (architecture refers to one or more of overall length, length of a duplex region, the presence, number, location, or length of overhangs, sing strand versus double strand form) described herein.

E.g., the iRNA agent can be less than 30 nucleotides in length, e.g., 21-23 nucleotides. Preferably, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length and there is a duplex region of about 19 pairs. In one embodiment, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length, and the duplex region of the iRNA is 19 nucleotides. In another embodiment, the iRNA is greater than 30 nucleotides in length.

In some embodiment the duplex region of the iRNA agent will have, mismatches, in addition to the selected or constrained site or sites. Preferably it will have no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 bases, which do not form canonical Watson-Crick pairs or which do not hybridize. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

The monomers can be selected such that: first and second monomers are naturally occurring ribonucleotides, or modified ribonucleotides having naturally occurring bases, and when occupying complementary sites either do not pair and have no substantial level of H-bonding, or form a non canonical Watson-Crick pairing and form a non-canonical pattern of H bonding, which usually have a lower free energy of dissociation than seen in a canonical Watson-Crick pairing, or otherwise pair to give a free energy of association which is less than that of a preselected value or is less, e.g., than that of a canonical pairing. When one (or both) of the iRNA agent sequences duplexes with a target, the first (or second) monomer forms a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the base in the complementary position on the target, or forms a non canonical Watson-Crick pairing having a higher free energy of dissociation and a higher Tm than seen in the paring in the iRNA agent. The classical Watson-Crick parings are as follows: A-T, G-C, and A-U. Non-canonical Watson-Crick pairings are known in the art and can include, U-U, G-G, G-Atrans, G-Acis, and GU.

The monomer in one or both of the sequences is selected such that, it does not pair, or forms a pair with its corresponding monomer in the other sequence which minimizes stability (e.g., the H bonding formed between the monomer at the selected site in the one sequence and its monomer at the corresponding site in the other sequence are less stable than the H bonds formed by the monomer one (or both) of the sequences with the respective target sequence. The monomer in one or both strands is also chosen to promote stability in one or both of the duplexes made by a strand and its target sequence. E.g., one or more of the monomers and the target sequences are selected such that at the selected or constrained position, there is are no H bonds formed, or a non canonical pairing is formed in the iRNA agent duplex, or otherwise they otherwise pair to give a free energy of association which is less than that of a preselected value or is less, e.g., than that of a canonical pairing, but when one (or both) sequences form a duplex with the respective target, the pairing at the selected or constrained site is a canonical Watson-Crick pairing.

The inclusion of such a monomers will have one or more of the following effects: it will destabilize the iRNA agent duplex, it will destabilize interactions between the sense sequence and unintended target sequences, sometimes referred to as off-target sequences, and duplex interactions between the a sequence and the intended target will not be destabilized.

By way of example:

the monomer at the selected site in the first sequence includes an A (or a modified base which pairs with T), and the monomer in at the selected position in the second sequence is chosen from a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing, e.g., G. These will be useful in applications wherein the target sequence for the first sequence has a T at the selected position. In embodiments where both target duplexes are stabilized it is useful wherein the target sequence for the second strand has a monomer which will form a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the monomer selected for the selected position in the second strand.

the monomer at the selected site in the first sequence includes U (or a modified base which pairs with A), and the monomer in at the selected position in the second sequence is chosen from a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing, e.g., U or G. These will be useful in applications wherein the target sequence for the first sequence has a T at the selected position. In embodiments where both target duplexes are stabilized it is useful wherein the target sequence for the second strand has a monomer which will form a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the monomer selected for the selected position in the second strand.

The monomer at the selected site in the first sequence includes a G (or a modified base which pairs with C), and the monomer in at the selected position in the second sequence is chosen from a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing, e.g., G, Acis, Atrans, or U. These will be useful in applications wherein the target sequence for the first sequence has a T at the selected position. In embodiments where both target duplexes are stabilized it is useful wherein the target sequence for the second strand has a monomer which will form a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the monomer selected for the selected position in the second strand.

The monomer at the selected site in the first sequence includes a C (or a modified base which pairs with G), and the monomer in at the selected position in the second sequence is chosen a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing. These will be useful in applications wherein the target sequence for the first sequence has a T at the selected position. In embodiments where both target duplexes are stabilized it is useful wherein the target sequence for the second strand has a monomer which will form a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the monomer selected for the selected position in the second strand.

In another embodiment a non-naturally occurring or modified monomer or monomers are chosen such that when a non-naturally occurring or modified monomer occupies a positions at the selected or constrained position in an iRNA agent they exhibit a first free energy of dissociation and when one (or both) of them pairs with a naturally occurring monomer, the pair exhibits a second free energy of dissociation, which is usually higher than that of the pairing of the first and second monomers. E.g., when the first and second monomers occupy complementary positions they either do not pair and have no substantial level of H-bonding, or form a weaker bond than one of them would form with a naturally occurring monomer, and reduce the stability of that duplex, but when the duplex dissociates at least one of the strands will form a duplex with a target in which the selected monomer will promote stability, e.g., the monomer will form a more stable pair with a naturally occurring monomer in the target sequence than the pairing it formed in the iRNA agent.

An example of such a pairing is 2-amino A and either of a 2-thio pyrimidine analog of U or T.

When placed in complementary positions of the iRNA agent these monomers will pair very poorly and will minimize stability. However, a duplex is formed between 2 amino A and the U of a naturally occurring target, or a duplex is between 2-thio U and the A of a naturally occurring target or 2-thio T and the A of a naturally occurring target will have a relatively higher free energy of dissociation and be more stable. This is shown in the FIG. 1.

The pair shown in FIG. 1 (the 2-amino A and the 2-s U and T) is exemplary. In another embodiment, the monomer at the selected position in the sense strand can be a universal pairing moiety. A universal pairing agent will form some level of H bonding with more than one and preferably all other naturally occurring monomers. An example of a universal pairing moiety is a monomer which includes 3-nitro pyrrole. (Examples of other candidate universal base analogs can be found in the art, e.g., in Loakes, 2001, NAR 29: 2437-2447, hereby incorporated by reference. Examples can also be found in the section on Universal Bases below.) In these cases the monomer at the corresponding position of the anti-sense strand can be chosen for its ability to form a duplex with the target and can include, e.g., A, U, G, or C.

In another aspect, the invention features, an iRNA agent which includes: a sense sequence, which preferably does not target a sequence in a subject, and an anti-sense sequence, which targets a target gene in a subject. The sense and anti-sense sequences have sufficient complementarity to each other to hybridize hybridize, e.g., under physiological conditions, e.g., under physiological conditions but not in contact with a helicase or other unwinding enzyme. In a duplex region of the iRNA agent, at a selected or constrained position, the monomers are selected such that:

the monomer in the sense sequence is selected such that, it does not pair, or forms a pair with its corresponding monomer in the anti-sense strand which minimizes stability (e.g., the H bonding formed between the monomer at the selected site in the sense strand and its monomer at the corresponding site in the anti-sense strand are less stable than the H bonds formed by the monomer of the anti-sense sequence and its canonical Watson-Crick partner or, if the monomer in the anti-sense strand includes a modified base, the natural analog of the modified base and its canonical Watson-Crick partner);

the monomer is in the corresponding position in the anti-sense strand is selected such that it maximizes the stability of a duplex it forms with the target sequence, e.g., it forms a canonical Watson-Crick paring with the monomer in the corresponding position on the target stand;

optionally, the monomer in the sense sequence is selected such that, it does not pair, or forms a pair with its corresponding monomer in the anti-sense strand which minimizes stability with an off-target sequence.

The inclusion of such a monomers will have one or more of the following effects: it will destabilize the iRNA agent duplex, it will destabilize interactions between the sense sequence and unintended target sequences, sometimes referred to as off-target sequences, and duplex interactions between the anti-sense strand and the intended target will not be destabilized.

The constraint placed upon the monomers can be applied at a selected site or at more than one selected site. By way of example, the constraint can be applied at more than 1, but less than 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7 sites in an iRNA agent duplex.

A constrained or selected site can be present at a number of positions in the iRNA agent duplex. E.g., a constrained or selected site can be present within 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from either end, 3′ or 5′ of a duplexed sequence. A constrained or selected site can be present in the middle of the duplex region, e.g., it can be more than 3, 4, 5, or 6, positions from the end of a duplexed region.

The iRNA agent can be selected to target a broad spectrum of genes, including any of the genes described herein.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent has an architecture (architecture refers to one or more of overall length, length of a duplex region, the presence, number, location, or length of overhangs, sing strand versus double strand form) described herein.

E.g., the iRNA agent can be less than 30 nucleotides in length, e.g., 21-23 nucleotides. Preferably, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length and there is a duplex region of about 19 pairs. In one embodiment, the iRNA is 21 nucleotides in length, and the duplex region of the iRNA is 19 nucleotides. In another embodiment, the iRNA is greater than 30 nucleotides in length.

In some embodiment the duplex region of the iRNA agent will have, mismatches, in addition to the selected or constrained site or sites. Preferably it will have no more than 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 bases, which do not form canonical Watson-Crick pairs or which do not hybridize. Overhangs are discussed in detail elsewhere herein but are preferably about 2 nucleotides in length. The overhangs can be complementary to the gene sequences being targeted or can be other sequence. TT is a preferred overhang sequence. The first and second iRNA agent sequences can also be joined, e.g., by additional bases to form a hairpin, or by other non-base linkers.

One or more selection or constraint parameters can be exercised such that: monomers at the selected site in the sense and anti-sense sequences are both naturally occurring ribonucleotides, or modified ribonucleotides having naturally occurring bases, and when occupying complementary sites in the iRNA agent duplex either do not pair and have no substantial level of H-bonding, or form a non-canonical Watson-Crick pairing and thus form a non-canonical pattern of H bonding, which generally have a lower free energy of dissociation than seen in a Watson-Crick pairing, or otherwise pair to give a free energy of association which is less than that of a preselected value or is less, e.g., than that of a canonical pairing. When one, usually the anti-sense sequence of the iRNA agent sequences forms a duplex with another sequence, generally a sequence in the subject, and generally a target sequence, the monomer forms a classic Watson-Crick pairing with the base in the complementary position on the target, or forms a non-canonical Watson-Crick pairing having a higher free energy of dissociation and a higher Tm than seen in the paring in the iRNA agent. Optionally, when the other sequence of the iRNA agent, usually the sense sequences forms a duplex with another sequence, generally a sequence in the subject, and generally an off-target sequence, the monomer fails to forms a canonical Watson-Crick pairing with the base in the complementary position on the off target sequence, e.g., it forms or forms a non-canonical Watson-Crick pairing having a lower free energy of dissociation and a lower Tm.

By way of example:

the monomer at the selected site in the anti-sense stand includes an A (or a modified base which pairs with T), the corresponding monomer in the target is a T, and the sense strand is chosen from a base which will not pair or which will form a noncanonical pair, e.g., G;

the monomer at the selected site in the anti-sense stand includes a U (or a modified base which pairs with A), the corresponding monomer in the target is an A, and the sense strand is chosen from a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing, e.g., U or G;

the monomer at the selected site in the anti-sense stand includes a C (or a modified base which pairs with G), the corresponding monomer in the target is a G, and the sense strand is chosen a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing, e.g., G, A_(cis), A_(trans), or U; or

the monomer at the selected site in the anti-sense stand includes a G (or a modified base which pairs with C), the corresponding monomer in the target is a C, and the sense strand is chosen from a monomer which will not pair or which will form a non-canonical pairing.

In another embodiment a non-naturally occurring or modified monomer or monomers is chosen such that when it occupies complementary a position in an iRNA agent they exhibit a first free energy of dissociation and when one (or both) of them pairs with a naturally occurring monomer, the pair exhibits a second free energy of dissociation, which is usually higher than that of the pairing of the first and second monomers. E.g., when the first and second monomers occupy complementary positions they either do not pair and have no substantial level of H-bonding, or form a weaker bond than one of them would form with a naturally occurring monomer, and reduce the stability of that duplex, but when the duplex dissociates at least one of the strands will form a duplex with a target in which the selected monomer will promote stability, e.g., the monomer will form a more stable pair with a naturally occurring monomer in the target sequence than the pairing it formed in the iRNA agent.

An example of such a pairing is 2-amino A and either of a 2-thio pyrimidine analog of U or T. As is discussed above, when placed in complementary positions of the iRNA agent these monomers will pair very poorly and will minimize stability. However, a duplex is formed between 2 amino A and the U of a naturally occurring target, or a duplex is formed between 2-thio U and the A of a naturally occurring target or 2-thio T and the A of a naturally occurring target will have a relatively higher free energy of dissociation and be more stable.

The monomer at the selected position in the sense strand can be a universal pairing moiety. A universal pairing agent will form some level of H bonding with more than one and preferably all other naturally occurring monomers. An examples of a universal pairing moiety is a monomer which includes 3-nitro pyrrole. Examples of other candidate universal base analogs can be found in the art, e.g., in Loakes, 2001, NAR 29: 2437-2447, hereby incorporated by reference. In these cases the monomer at the corresponding position of the anti-sense strand can be chosen for its ability to form a duplex with the target and can include, e.g., A, U, G, or C.

In another aspect, the invention features, an iRNA agent which includes: a sense sequence, which preferably does not target a sequence in a subject, and an anti-sense sequence, which targets a plurality of target sequences in a subject, wherein the targets differ in sequence at only 1 or a small number, e.g., no more than 5, 4, 3 or 2 positions. The sense and anti-sense sequences have sufficient complementarity to each other to hybridize, e.g., under physiological conditions, e.g., under physiological conditions but not in contact with a helicase or other unwinding enzyme. In the sequence of the anti-sense strand of the iRNA agent is selected such that at one, some, or all of the positions which correspond to positions that differ in sequence between the target sequences, the anti-sense strand will include a monomer which will form H-bonds with at least two different target sequences.

As used herein, the term “crystalline” describes a solid having the structure or characteristics of a crystal, i.e., particles of three-dimensional structure in which the plane faces intersect at definite angles and in which there is a regular internal structure. The compositions of the invention may have different crystalline forms. Crystalline forms can be prepared by a variety of methods, including, for example, spray drying.

As used herein, “specifically hybridizable” and “complementary” are terms which are used to indicate a sufficient degree of complementarity such that stable and specific binding occurs between a compound of the invention and a target RNA molecule. Specific binding requires a sufficient degree of complementarity to avoid non-specific binding of the oligomeric compound to non-target sequences under conditions in which specific binding is desired, i.e., under physiological conditions in the case of in vivo assays or therapeutic treatment, or in the case of in vitro assays, under conditions in which the assays are performed. The non-target sequences typically differ by at least 5 nucleotides.

In one embodiment, an iRNA agent is “sufficiently complementary” to a target RNA, e.g., a target mRNA, such that the iRNA agent silences production of protein encoded by the target mRNA. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent is “exactly complementary” to a target RNA, e.g., the target RNA and the iRNA agent anneal, preferably to form a hybrid made exclusively of Watson-Crick basepairs in the region of exact complementarity. A “sufficiently complementary” target RNA can include an internal region (e.g., of at least 10 nucleotides) that is exactly complementary to a target RNA. Moreover, in some embodiments, the iRNA agent specifically discriminates a single-nucleotide difference. In this case, the iRNA agent only mediates RNAi if exact complementary is found in the region (e.g., within 7 nucleotides of) the single-nucleotide difference.

As used herein, the term “oligonucleotide” refers to a nucleic acid molecule (RNA or DNA) preferably of length less than 100, 200, 300, or 400 nucleotides.

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The materials, methods, and examples are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting. Although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice or testing of the present invention, useful methods and materials are described below. Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the accompanying drawings and description, and from the claims.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Double-stranded (dsRNA) directs the sequence-specific silencing of mRNA through a process known as RNA interference (RNAi). The process occurs in a wide variety of organisms, including mammals and other vertebrates.

It has been demonstrated that 21-23 nt fragments of dsRNA are sequence-specific mediators of RNA silencing, e.g., by causing RNA degradation. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it may be that a molecular signal, which may be merely the specific length of the fragments, present in these 21-23 nt fragments recruits cellular factors that mediate RNAi. Described herein are methods for preparing and administering these 21-23 nt fragments, and other iRNAs agents, and their use for specifically inactivating gene function. The use of iRNAs agents (or recombinantly produced or chemically synthesized oligonucleotides of the same or similar nature) enables the targeting of specific mRNAs for silencing in mammalian cells. In addition, longer dsRNA agent fragments can also be used, e.g., as described below.

Although, in mammalian cells, long dsRNAs can induce the interferon response which is frequently deleterious, sRNAs do not trigger the interferon response, at least not to an extent that is deleterious to the cell and host. In particular, the length of the iRNA agent strands in an sRNA agent can be less than 31, 30, 28, 25, or 23 nt, e.g., sufficiently short to avoid inducing a deleterious interferon response. Thus, the administration of a composition of sRNA agent (e.g., formulated as described herein) to a mammalian cell can be used to silence expression of a target gene while circumventing the interferon response. Further, use of a discrete species of iRNA agent can be used to selectively target one allele of a target gene, e.g., in a subject heterozygous for the allele.

Moreover, in one embodiment, a mammalian cell is treated with an iRNA agent that disrupts a component of the interferon response, e.g., double stranded RNA (dsRNA)-activated protein kinase PKR. Such a cell can be treated with a second iRNA agent that includes a sequence complementary to a target RNA and that has a length that might otherwise trigger the interferon response.

In a typical embodiment, the subject is a mammal such as a cow, horse, mouse, rat, dog, pig, goat, or a primate. The subject can be a dairy mammal (e.g., a cow, or goat) or other farmed animal (e.g., a chicken, turkey, sheep, pig, fish, shrimp). In a much preferred embodiment, the subject is a human, e.g., a normal individual or an individual that has, is diagnosed with, or is predicted to have a disease or disorder.

Further, because iRNA agent mediated silencing persists for several days after administering the iRNA agent composition, in many instances, it is possible to administer the composition with a frequency of less than once per day, or, for some instances, only once for the entire therapeutic regimen. For example, treatment of some cancer cells may be mediated by a single bolus administration, whereas a chronic viral infection may require regular administration, e.g., once per week or once per month.

A number of exemplary routes of delivery are described that can be used to administer an iRNA agent to a subject. In addition, the iRNA agent can be formulated according to an exemplary method described herein.

iRNA Agent Structure

Described herein are isolated iRNA agents, e.g., RNA molecules, (double-stranded; single-stranded) that mediate RNAi. The iRNA agents preferably mediate RNAi with respect to an endogenous gene of a subject or to a gene of a pathogen.

An “RNA agent” as used herein, is an unmodified RNA, modified RNA, or nucleoside surrogate, all of which are defined herein (see, e.g., the section below entitled RNA Agents). While numerous modified RNAs and nucleoside surrogates are described, preferred examples include those which have greater resistance to nuclease degradation than do unmodified RNAs. Preferred examples include those which have a 2′ sugar modification, a modification in a single strand overhang, preferably a 3′ single strand overhang, or, particularly if single stranded, a 5′ modification which includes one or more phosphate groups or one or more analogs of a phosphate group.

An “iRNA agent” as used herein, is an RNA agent which can, or which can be cleaved into an RNA agent which can, down regulate the expression of a target gene, preferably an endogenous or pathogen target RNA. While not wishing to be bound by theory, an iRNA agent may act by one or more of a number of mechanisms, including post-transcriptional cleavage of a target mRNA sometimes referred to in the art as RNAi, or pre-transcriptional or pre-translational mechanisms. An iRNA agent can include a single strand or can include more than one strands, e.g., it can be a double stranded iRNA agent. If the iRNA agent is a single strand it is particularly preferred that it include a 5′ modification which includes one or more phosphate groups or one or more analogs of a phosphate group.

The iRNA agent should include a region of sufficient homology to the target gene, and be of sufficient length in terms of nucleotides, such that the iRNA agent, or a fragment thereof, can mediate down regulation of the target gene. (For ease of exposition the term nucleotide or ribonucleotide is sometimes used herein in reference to one or more monomeric subunits of an RNA agent. It will be understood herein that the usage of the term “ribonucleotide” or “nucleotide”, herein can, in the case of a modified RNA or nucleotide surrogate, also refer to a modified nucleotide, or surrogate replacement moiety at one or more positions.) Thus, the iRNA agent is or includes a region which is at least partially, and in some embodiments fully, complementary to the target RNA. It is not necessary that there be perfect complementarity between the iRNA agent and the target, but the correspondence must be sufficient to enable the iRNA agent, or a cleavage product thereof, to direct sequence specific silencing, e.g., by RNAi cleavage of the target RNA, e.g., mRNA.

Complementarity, or degree of homology with the target strand, is most critical in the antisense strand. While perfect complementarity, particularly in the antisense strand, is often desired some embodiments can include, particularly in the antisense strand, one or more but preferably 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, or fewer mismatches (with respect to the target RNA). The mismatches, particularly in the antisense strand, are most tolerated in the terminal regions and if present are preferably in a terminal region or regions, e.g., within 6, 5, 4, or 3 nucleotides of the 5′ and/or 3′ terminus. The sense strand need only be sufficiently complementary with the antisense strand to maintain the over all double strand character of the molecule.

As discussed elsewhere herein, an iRNA agent will often be modified or include nucleoside surrogates in addition to the RRMS. Single stranded regions of an iRNA agent will often be modified or include nucleoside surrogates, e.g., the unpaired region or regions of a hairpin structure, e.g., a region which links two complementary regions, can have modifications or nucleoside surrogates. Modification to stabilize one or more 3′- or 5′-terminus of an iRNA agent, e.g., against exonucleases, or to favor the antisense sRNA agent to enter into RISC are also favored. Modifications can include C3 (or C6, C7, C12) amino linkers, thiol linkers, carboxyl linkers, non-nucleotidic spacers (C3, C6, C9, C12, abasic, triethylene glycol, hexaethylene glycol), special biotin or fluorescein reagents that come as phosphoramidites and that have another DMT-protected hydroxyl group, allowing multiple couplings during RNA synthesis.

iRNA agents include: molecules that are long enough to trigger the interferon response (which can be cleaved by Dicer (Bernstein et al. 2001. Nature, 409:363-366) and enter a RISC (RNAi-induced silencing complex)); and, molecules which are sufficiently short that they do not trigger the interferon response (which molecules can also be cleaved by Dicer and/or enter a RISC), e.g., molecules which are of a size which allows entry into a RISC, e.g., molecules which resemble Dicer-cleavage products. Molecules that are short enough that they do not trigger an interferon response are termed sRNA agents or shorter iRNA agents herein. “sRNA agent or shorter iRNA agent” as used herein, refers to an iRNA agent, e.g., a double stranded RNA agent or single strand agent, that is sufficiently short that it does not induce a deleterious interferon response in a human cell, e.g., it has a duplexed region of less than 60 but preferably less than 50, 40, or 30 nucleotide pairs. The sRNA agent, or a cleavage product thereof, can down regulate a target gene, e.g., by inducing RNAi with respect to a target RNA, preferably an endogenous or pathogen target RNA.

Each strand of an sRNA agent can be equal to or less than 30, 25, 24, 23, 22, 21, or 20 nucleotides in length. The strand is preferably at least 19 nucleotides in length. For example, each strand can be between 21 and 25 nucleotides in length. Preferred sRNA agents have a duplex region of 17, 18, 19, 29, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 nucleotide pairs, and one or more overhangs, preferably one or two 3′ overhangs, of 2-3 nucleotides.

In addition to homology to target RNA and the ability to down regulate a target gene, an iRNA agent will preferably have one or more of the following properties:

(1) it will be of the Formula 1, 2, 3, or 4 set out in the RNA Agent section below;

(2) if single stranded it will have a 5′ modification which includes one or more phosphate groups or one or more analogs of a phosphate group;

(3) it will, despite modifications, even to a very large number, or all of the nucleosides, have an antisense strand that can present bases (or modified bases) in the proper three dimensional framework so as to be able to form correct base pairing and form a duplex structure with a homologous target RNA which is sufficient to allow down regulation of the target, e.g., by cleavage of the target RNA;

(4) it will, despite modifications, even to a very large number, or all of the nucleosides, still have “RNA-like” properties, i.e., it will possess the overall structural, chemical and physical properties of an RNA molecule, even though not exclusively, or even partly, of ribonucleotide-based content. For example, an iRNA agent can contain, e.g., a sense and/or an antisense strand in which all of the nucleotide sugars contain e.g., 2′ fluoro in place of 2′ hydroxyl. This deoxyribonucleotide-containing agent can still be expected to exhibit RNA-like properties. While not wishing to be bound by theory, the electronegative fluorine prefers an axial orientation when attached to the C2′ position of ribose. This spatial preference of fluorine can, in turn, force the sugars to adopt a C3′-endo pucker. This is the same puckering mode as observed in RNA molecules and gives rise to the RNA-characteristic A-family-type helix. Further, since fluorine is a good hydrogen bond acceptor, it can participate in the same hydrogen bonding interactions with water molecules that are known to stabilize RNA structures. (Generally, it is preferred that a modified moiety at the 2′ sugar position will be able to enter into H-bonding which is more characteristic of the OH moiety of a ribonucleotide than the H moiety of a deoxyribonucleotide. A preferred iRNA agent will: exhibit a C3′-endo pucker in all, or at least 50, 75, 80, 85, 90, or 95% of its sugars; exhibit a C3′-endo pucker in a sufficient amount of its sugars that it can give rise to a the RNA-characteristic A-family-type helix; will have no more than 20, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, or 1 sugar which is not a C3′-endo pucker structure. These limitations are particularly preferably in the antisense strand;

(5) regardless of the nature of the modification, and even though the RNA agent can contain deoxynucleotides or modified deoxynucleotides, particularly in overhang or other single strand regions, it is preferred that DNA molecules, or any molecule in which more than 50, 60, or 70% of the nucleotides in the molecule, or more than 50, 60, or 70% of the nucleotides in a duplexed region are deoxyribonucleotides, or modified deoxyribonucleotides which are deoxy at the 2′ position, are excluded from the definition of RNA agent.

A “single strand iRNA agent” as used herein, is an iRNA agent which is made up of a single molecule. It may include a duplexed region, formed by intra-strand pairing, e.g., it may be, or include, a hairpin or pan-handle structure. Single strand iRNA agents are preferably antisense with regard to the target molecule. In preferred embodiments single strand iRNA agents are 5′ phosphorylated or include a phosphoryl analog at the 5′ prime terminus. 5′-phosphate modifications include those which are compatible with RISC mediated gene silencing. Suitable modifications include: 5′-monophosphate ((HO)2(O)P—O-5′); 5′-diphosphate ((HO)2(O)P—O—P(HO)(O)—O-5′); 5′-triphosphate ((HO)2(O)P—O—(HO)(O)P—O—P(HO)(O)—O-5′); 5′-guanosine cap (7-methylated or non-methylated) (7m-G-O-5′-(HO)(O)P—O—(HO)(O)P—O—P(HO)(O)—O-5′); 5′-adenosine cap (Appp), and any modified or unmodified nucleotide cap structure (N—O-5′-(HO)(O)P—O—(HO)(O)P—O—P(HO)(O)—O-5′); 5′-monothiophosphate (phosphorothioate; (HO)2(S)P—O-5′); 5′-monodithiophosphate (phosphorodithioate; (HO)(HS)(S)P—O-5′), 5′-phosphorothiolate ((HO)2(O)P—S-5′); any additional combination of oxygen/sulfur replaced monophosphate, diphosphate and triphosphates (e.g. 5′-alpha-thiotriphosphate, 5′-gamma-thiotriphosphate, etc.), 5′-phosphoramidates ((HO)2(O)P—NH-5′, (HO)(NH₂)(O)P—O-5′), 5′-alkylphosphonates (R=alkyl=methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, propyl, etc., e.g. RP(OH)(O)—O-5′-, (OH)2(O)P-5′-CH2-), 5′-alkyletherphosphonates (R=alkylether=methoxymethyl (MeOCH2-), ethoxymethyl, etc., e.g. RP(OH)(O)—O-5′-). (These modifications can also be used with the antisense strand of a double stranded iRNA.)

A single strand iRNA agent should be sufficiently long that it can enter the RISC and participate in RISC mediated cleavage of a target mRNA. A single strand iRNA agent is at least 14, and more preferably at least 15, 20, 25, 29, 35, 40, or 50 nucleotides in length. It is preferably less than 200, 100, or 60 nucleotides in length.

Hairpin iRNA agents will have a duplex region equal to or at least 17, 18, 19, 29, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 nucleotide pairs. The duplex region will preferably be equal to or less than 200, 100, or 50, in length. Preferred ranges for the duplex region are 15-30, 17 to 23, 19 to 23, and 19 to 21 nucleotides pairs in length. The hairpin will preferably have a single strand overhang or terminal unpaired region, preferably the 3′, and preferably of the antisense side of the hairpin. Preferred overhangs are 2-3 nucleotides in length.

A “double stranded (ds) iRNA agent” as used herein, is an iRNA agent which includes more than one, and preferably two, strands in which interchain hybridization can form a region of duplex structure.

The antisense strand of a double stranded iRNA agent should be equal to or at least, 14, 15, 16 17, 18, 19, 25, 29, 40, or 60 nucleotides in length. It should be equal to or less than 200, 100, or 50, nucleotides in length. Preferred ranges are 17 to 25, 19 to 23, and 19 to 21 nucleotides in length.

The sense strand of a double stranded iRNA agent should be equal to or at least 14, 15, 16 17, 18, 19, 25, 29, 40, or 60 nucleotides in length. It should be equal to or less than 200, 100, or 50, nucleotides in length. Preferred ranges are 17 to 25, 19 to 23, and 19 to 21 nucleotides in length.

The double strand portion of a double stranded iRNA agent should be equal to or at least, 14, 15, 16 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 29, 40, or 60 nucleotide pairs in length. It should be equal to or less than 200, 100, or 50, nucleotides pairs in length. Preferred ranges are 15-30, 17 to 23, 19 to 23, and 19 to 21 nucleotides pairs in length.

In many embodiments, the ds iRNA agent is sufficiently large that it can be cleaved by an endogenous molecule, e.g., by Dicer, to produce smaller ds iRNA agents, e.g., sRNAs agents

It may be desirable to modify one or both of the antisense and sense strands of a double strand iRNA agent. In some cases they will have the same modification or the same class of modification but in other cases the sense and antisense strand will have different modifications, e.g., in some cases it is desirable to modify only the sense strand. It may be desirable to modify only the sense strand, e.g., to inactivate it, e.g., the sense strand can be modified in order to inactivate the sense strand and prevent formation of an active sRNA/protein or RISC. This can be accomplished by a modification which prevents 5′-phosphorylation of the sense strand, e.g., by modification with a 5′-O-methyl ribonucleotide (see Nykanen et al., (2001) ATP requirements and small interfering RNA structure in the RNA interference pathway. Cell 107, 309-321.) Other modifications which prevent phosphorylation can also be used, e.g., simply substituting the 5′-OH by H rather than O-Me. Alternatively, a large bulky group may be added to the 5′-phosphate turning it into a phosphodiester linkage, though this may be less desirable as phosphodiesterases can cleave such a linkage and release a functional sRNA 5′-end. Antisense strand modifications include 5′ phosphorylation as well as any of the other 5′ modifications discussed herein, particularly the 5′ modifications discussed above in the section on single stranded iRNA molecules.

It is preferred that the sense and antisense strands be chosen such that the ds iRNA agent includes a single strand or unpaired region at one or both ends of the molecule. Thus, a ds iRNA agent contains sense and antisense strands, preferable paired to contain an overhang, e.g., one or two 5′ or 3′ overhangs but preferably a 3′ overhang of 2-3 nucleotides. Most embodiments will have a 3′ overhang. Preferred sRNA agents will have single-stranded overhangs, preferably 3′ overhangs, of 1 or preferably 2 or 3 nucleotides in length at each end. The overhangs can be the result of one strand being longer than the other, or the result of two strands of the same length being staggered. 5′ ends are preferably phosphorylated.

Preferred lengths for the duplexed region is between 15 and 30, most preferably 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23 nucleotides in length, e.g., in the sRNA agent range discussed above. sRNA agents can resemble in length and structure the natural Dicer processed products from long dsRNAs. Embodiments in which the two strands of the sRNA agent are linked, e.g., covalently linked are also included. Hairpin, or other single strand structures which provide the required double stranded region, and preferably a 3′ overhang are also within the invention.

The isolated iRNA agents described herein, including ds iRNA agents and sRNA agents can mediate silencing of a target RNA, e.g., mRNA, e.g., a transcript of a gene that encodes a protein. For convenience, such mRNA is also referred to herein as mRNA to be silenced. Such a gene is also referred to as a target gene. In general, the RNA to be silenced is an endogenous gene or a pathogen gene. In addition, RNAs other than mRNA, e.g., tRNAs, and viral RNAs, can also be targeted.

As used herein, the phrase “mediates RNAi” refers to the ability to silence, in a sequence specific manner, a target RNA. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that silencing uses the RNAi machinery or process and a guide RNA, e.g., an sRNA agent of 21 to 23 nucleotides.

As used herein, “specifically hybridizable” and “complementary” are terms which are used to indicate a sufficient degree of complementarity such that stable and specific binding occurs between a compound of the invention and a target RNA molecule. Specific binding requires a sufficient degree of complementarity to avoid non-specific binding of the oligomeric compound to non-target sequences under conditions in which specific binding is desired, i.e., under physiological conditions in the case of in vivo assays or therapeutic treatment, or in the case of in vitro assays, under conditions in which the assays are performed. The non-target sequences typically differ by at least 5 nucleotides.

In one embodiment, an iRNA agent is “sufficiently complementary” to a target RNA, e.g., a target mRNA, such that the iRNA agent silences production of protein encoded by the target mRNA. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent is “exactly complementary” (excluding the RRMS containing subunit(s)) to a target RNA, e.g., the target RNA and the iRNA agent anneal, preferably to form a hybrid made exclusively of Watson-Crick basepairs in the region of exact complementarity. A “sufficiently complementary” target RNA can include an internal region (e.g., of at least 10 nucleotides) that is exactly complementary to a target RNA. Moreover, in some embodiments, the iRNA agent specifically discriminates a single-nucleotide difference. In this case, the iRNA agent only mediates RNAi if exact complementary is found in the region (e.g., within 7 nucleotides of) the single-nucleotide difference.

As used herein, the term “oligonucleotide” refers to a nucleic acid molecule (RNA or DNA) preferably of length less than 100, 200, 300, or 400 nucleotides.

RNA agents discussed herein include otherwise unmodified RNA as well as RNA which have been modified, e.g., to improve efficacy, and polymers of nucleoside surrogates. Unmodified RNA refers to a molecule in which the components of the nucleic acid, namely sugars, bases, and phosphate moieties, are the same or essentially the same as that which occur in nature, preferably as occur naturally in the human body. The art has referred to rare or unusual, but naturally occurring, RNAs as modified RNAs, see, e.g., Limbach et al., (1994) Summary: the modified nucleosides of RNA, Nucleic Acids Res. 22: 2183-2196. Such rare or unusual RNAs, often termed modified RNAs (apparently because the are typically the result of a post transcriptionally modification) are within the term unmodified RNA, as used herein. Modified RNA as used herein refers to a molecule in which one or more of the components of the nucleic acid, namely sugars, bases, and phosphate moieties, are different from that which occur in nature, preferably different from that which occurs in the human body. While they are referred to as modified “RNAs,” they will of course, because of the modification, include molecules which are not RNAs. Nucleoside surrogates are molecules in which the ribophosphate backbone is replaced with a non-ribophosphate construct that allows the bases to the presented in the correct spatial relationship such that hybridization is substantially similar to what is seen with a ribophosphate backbone, e.g., non-charged mimics of the ribophosphate backbone. Examples of all of the above are discussed herein.

Much of the discussion below refers to single strand molecules. In many embodiments of the invention a double stranded iRNA agent, e.g., a partially double stranded iRNA agent, is required or preferred. Thus, it is understood that that double stranded structures (e.g. where two separate molecules are contacted to form the double stranded region or where the double stranded region is formed by intramolecular pairing (e.g., a hairpin structure)) made of the single stranded structures described below are within the invention. Preferred lengths are described elsewhere herein.

As nucleic acids are polymers of subunits or monomers, many of the modifications described below occur at a position which is repeated within a nucleic acid, e.g., a modification of a base, or a phosphate moiety, or the a non-linking 0 of a phosphate moiety. In some cases the modification will occur at all of the subject positions in the nucleic acid but in many, and infact in most cases it will not. By way of example, a modification may only occur at a 3′ or 5′ terminal position, may only occur in a terminal regions, e.g. at a position on a terminal nucleotide or in the last 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10 nucleotides of a strand. A modification may occur in a double strand region, a single strand region, or in both. A modification may occur only in the double strand region of an RNA or may only occur in a single strand region of an RNA. E.g., a phosphorothioate modification at a non-linking 0 position may only occur at one or both termini, may only occur in a terminal regions, e.g., at a position on a terminal nucleotide or in the last 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10 nucleotides of a strand, or may occur in double strand and single strand regions, particularly at termini. The 5′ end or ends can be phosphorylated.

In some embodiments it is particularly preferred, e.g., to enhance stability, to include particular bases in overhangs, or to include modified nucleotides or nucleotide surrogates, in single strand overhangs, e.g., in a 5′ or 3′ overhang, or in both. E.g., it can be desirable to include purine nucleotides in overhangs. In some embodiments all or some of the bases in a 3′ or 5′ overhang will be modified, e.g., with a modification described herein. Modifications can include, e.g., the use of modifications at the 2′ OH group of the ribose sugar, e.g., the use of deoxyribonucleotides, e.g., deoxythymidine, instead of ribonucleotides, and modifications in the phosphate group, e.g., phosphothioate modifications. Overhangs need not be homologous with the target sequence.

Modifications and nucleotide surrogates are discussed below.

The scaffold presented above in Formula 1 represents a portion of a ribonucleic acid. The basic components are the ribose sugar, the base, the terminal phosphates, and phosphate internucleotide linkers. Where the bases are naturally occurring bases, e.g., adenine, uracil, guanine or cytosine, the sugars are the unmodified 2′ hydroxyl ribose sugar (as depicted) and W, X, Y, and Z are all O, Formula 1 represents a naturally occurring unmodified oligoribonucleotide.

Unmodified oligoribonucleotides may be less than optimal in some applications, e.g., unmodified oligoribonucleotides can be prone to degradation by e.g., cellular nucleases. Nucleases can hydrolyze nucleic acid phosphodiester bonds. However, chemical modifications to one or more of the above RNA components can confer improved properties, and, e.g., can render oligoribonucleotides more stable to nucleases. Unmodified oligoribonucleotides may also be less than optimal in terms of offering tethering points for attaching ligands or other moieties to an iRNA agent.

Modified nucleic acids and nucleotide surrogates can include one or more of:

(i) alteration, e.g., replacement, of one or both of the non-linking (X and Y) phosphate oxygens and/or of one or more of the linking (W and Z) phosphate oxygens (When the phosphate is in the terminal position, one of the positions W or Z will not link the phosphate to an additional element in a naturally occurring ribonucleic acid. However, for simplicity of terminology, except where otherwise noted, the W position at the 5′ end of a nucleic acid and the terminal Z position at the 3′ end of a nucleic acid, are within the term “linking phosphate oxygens” as used herein);

(ii) alteration, e.g., replacement, of a constituent of the ribose sugar, e.g., of the 2′ hydroxyl on the ribose sugar, or wholesale replacement of the ribose sugar with a structure other than ribose, e.g., as described herein;

(iii) wholesale replacement of the phosphate moiety (bracket I) with “dephospho” linkers;

(iv) modification or replacement of a naturally occurring base;

(v) replacement or modification of the ribose-phosphate backbone (bracket II);

(vi) modification of the 3′ end or 5′ end of the RNA, e.g., removal, modification or replacement of a terminal phosphate group or conjugation of a moiety, e.g. a fluorescently labeled moiety, to either the 3′ or 5′ end of RNA.

The terms replacement, modification, alteration, and the like, as used in this context, do not imply any process limitation, e.g., modification does not mean that one must start with a reference or naturally occurring ribonucleic acid and modify it to produce a modified ribonucleic acid bur rather modified simply indicates a difference from a naturally occurring molecule.

It is understood that the actual electronic structure of some chemical entities cannot be adequately represented by only one canonical form (i.e. Lewis structure). While not wishing to be bound by theory, the actual structure can instead be some hybrid or weighted average of two or more canonical forms, known collectively as resonance forms or structures. Resonance structures are not discrete chemical entities and exist only on paper. They differ from one another only in the placement or “localization” of the bonding and nonbonding electrons for a particular chemical entity. It can be possible for one resonance structure to contribute to a greater extent to the hybrid than the others. Thus, the written and graphical descriptions of the embodiments of the present invention are made in terms of what the art recognizes as the predominant resonance form for a particular species. For example, any phosphoroamidate (replacement of a nonlinking oxygen with nitrogen) would be represented by X=O and Y=N in the above figure.

Specific modifications are discussed in more detail below.

The Phosphate Group

The phosphate group is a negatively charged species. The charge is distributed equally over the two non-linking oxygen atoms (i.e., X and Y in Formula 1 above). However, the phosphate group can be modified by replacing one of the oxygens with a different substituent. One result of this modification to RNA phosphate backbones can be increased resistance of the oligoribonucleotide to nucleolytic breakdown. Thus while not wishing to be bound by theory, it can be desirable in some embodiments to introduce alterations which result in either an uncharged linker or a charged linker with unsymmetrical charge distribution.

Examples of modified phosphate groups include phosphorothioate, phosphoroselenates, borano phosphates, borano phosphate esters, hydrogen phosphonates, phosphoroamidates, alkyl or aryl phosphonates and phosphotriesters. Phosphorodithioates have both non-linking oxygens replaced by sulfur. Unlike the situation where only one of X or Y is altered, the phosphorus center in the phosphorodithioates is achiral which precludes the formation of oligoribonucleotides diastereomers. Diastereomer formation can result in a preparation in which the individual diastereomers exhibit varying resistance to nucleases. Further, the hybridization affinity of RNA containing chiral phosphate groups can be lower relative to the corresponding unmodified RNA species. Thus, while not wishing to be bound by theory, modifications to both X and Y which eliminate the chiral center, e.g. phosphorodithioate formation, may be desirable in that they cannot produce diastereomer mixtures. Thus, X can be any one of S, Se, B, C, H, N, or OR (R is alkyl or aryl). Thus Y can be any one of S, Se, B, C, H, N, or OR (R is alkyl or aryl). Replacement of X and/or Y with sulfur is preferred.

The phosphate linker can also be modified by replacement of a linking oxygen (i.e., W or Z in Formula 1) with nitrogen (bridged phosphoroamidates), sulfur (bridged phosphorothioates) and carbon (bridged methylenephosphonates). The replacement can occur at a terminal oxygen (position W (3′) or position Z (5′). Replacement of W with carbon or Z with nitrogen is preferred.

Candidate agents can be evaluated for suitability as described below.

The Sugar Group

A modified RNA can include modification of all or some of the sugar groups of the ribonucleic acid. E.g., the 2′ hydroxyl group (OH) can be modified or replaced with a number of different “oxy” or “deoxy” substituents. While not being bound by theory, enhanced stability is expected since the hydroxyl can no longer be deprotonated to form a 2′ alkoxide ion. The 2′ alkoxide can catalyze degradation by intramolecular nucleophilic attack on the linker phosphorus atom. Again, while not wishing to be bound by theory, it can be desirable to some embodiments to introduce alterations in which alkoxide formation at the 2′ position is not possible.

Examples of “oxy”-2′ hydroxyl group modifications include alkoxy or aryloxy (OR, e.g., R=H, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, aralkyl, heteroaryl or sugar); polyethyleneglycols (PEG), O(CH₂CH₂O)_(n)CH₂CH₂OR; “locked” nucleic acids (LNA) in which the 2′ hydroxyl is connected, e.g., by a methylene bridge, to the 4′ carbon of the same ribose sugar; O-AMINE (AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino, ethylene diamine, polyamino) and aminoalkoxy, O(CH₂)_(n)AMINE, (e.g., AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino, ethylene diamine, polyamino). It is noteworthy that oligonucleotides containing only the methoxyethyl group (MOE), (OCH₂CH₂OCH₃, a PEG derivative), exhibit nuclease stabilities comparable to those modified with the robust phosphorothioate modification.

“Deoxy” modifications include hydrogen (i.e. deoxyribose sugars, which are of particular relevance to the overhang portions of partially ds RNA); halo (e.g., fluoro); amino (e.g. NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, diheteroaryl amino, or amino acid); NH(CH₂CH₂NH)_(n)CH₂CH₂-AMINE (AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino), −NHC(O)R (R=alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, aralkyl, heteroaryl or sugar), cyano; mercapto; alkyl-thio-alkyl; thioalkoxy; and alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkenyl and alkynyl, which may be optionally substituted with e.g., an amino functionality. Preferred substitutents are 2′-methoxyethyl, 2′-OCH3, 2′-O-allyl, 2′-C— allyl, and 2′-fluoro.

The sugar group can also contain one or more carbons that possess the opposite stereochemical configuration than that of the corresponding carbon in ribose. Thus, a modified RNA can include nucleotides containing e.g., arabinose, as the sugar.

Modified RNA's can also include “abasic” sugars, which lack a nucleobase at C-1′. These abasic sugars can also be further contain modifications at one or more of the constituent sugar atoms.

To maximize nuclease resistance, the 2′ modifications can be used in combination with one or more phosphate linker modifications (e.g., phosphorothioate). The so-called “chimeric” oligonucleotides are those that contain two or more different modifications.

The modificaton can also entail the wholesale replacement of a ribose structure with another entity at one or more sites in the iRNA agent. These modifications are described in section entitled Ribose Replacements for RRMSs.

Candidate modifications can be evaluated as described below.

Replacement of the Phosphate Group

The phosphate group can be replaced by non-phosphorus containing connectors (cf. Bracket I in Formula 1 above). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that since the charged phosphodiester group is the reaction center in nucleolytic degradation, its replacement with neutral structural mimics should impart enhanced nuclease stability. Again, while not wishing to be bound by theory, it can be desirable, in some embodiment, to introduce alterations in which the charged phosphate group is replaced by a neutral moiety.

Examples of moieties which can replace the phosphate group include siloxane, carbonate, carboxymethyl, carbamate, amide, thioether, ethylene oxide linker, sulfonate, sulfonamide, thioformacetal, formacetal, oxime, methyleneimino, methyl enemethylimino, methylenehydrazo, methylenedimethylhydrazo and methyleneoxymethylimino. Preferred replacements include the methylenecarbonylamino and methyl enemethylimino groups.

Candidate modifications can be evaluated as described below.

Replacement of Ribophosphate Backbone

Oligonucleotide-mimicking scaffolds can also be constructed wherein the phosphate linker and ribose sugar are replaced by nuclease resistant nucleoside or nucleotide surrogates (see Bracket II of Formula 1 above). While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the absence of a repetitively charged backbone diminishes binding to proteins that recognize polyanions (e.g. nucleases). Again, while not wishing to be bound by theory, it can be desirable in some embodiment, to introduce alterations in which the bases are tethered by a neutral surrogate backbone.

Examples include the mophilino, cyclobutyl, pyrrolidine and peptide nucleic acid (PNA) nucleoside surrogates. A preferred surrogate is a PNA surrogate.

Candidate modifications can be evaluated as described below.

Terminal Modifications

The 3′ and 5′ ends of an oligonucleotide can be modified. Such modifications can be at the 3′ end, 5′ end or both ends of the molecule. They can include modification or replacement of an entire terminal phosphate or of one or more of the atoms of the phosphate group. E.g., the 3′ and 5′ ends of an oligonucleotide can be conjugated to other functional molecular entities such as labeling moieties, e.g., fluorophores (e.g., pyrene, TAMRA, fluorescein, Cy3 or Cy5 dyes) or protecting groups (based e.g., on sulfur, silicon, boron or ester). The functional molecular entities can be attached to the sugar through a phosphate group and/or a spacer. The terminal atom of the spacer can connect to or replace the linking atom of the phosphate group or the C-3′ or C-5′ O, N, S or C group of the sugar. Alternatively, the spacer can connect to or replace the terminal atom of a nucleotide surrogate (e.g., PNAs). These spacers or linkers can include e.g., −(CH₂)_(n)—, —(CH₂)_(n)N—, −(CH₂)_(n)O—, —(CH₂)_(n)S—, O(CH₂CH₂O)_(n)CH₂CH₂OH (e.g., n=3 or 6), abasic sugars, amide, carboxy, amine, oxyamine, oxyimine, thioether, disulfide, thiourea, sulfonamide, or morpholino, or biotin and fluorescein reagents. When a spacer/phosphate-functional molecular entity-spacer/phosphate array is interposed between two strands of iRNA agents, this array can substitute for a hairpin RNA loop in a hairpin-type RNA agent. The 3′ end can be an —OH group. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that conjugation of certain moieties can improve transport, hybridization, and specificity properties. Again, while not wishing to be bound by theory, it may be desirable to introduce terminal alterations that improve nuclease resistance. Other examples of terminal modifications include dyes, intercalating agents (e.g. acridines), cross-linkers (e.g. psoralene, mitomycin C), porphyrins (TPPC4, texaphyrin, Sapphyrin), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., phenazine, dihydrophenazine), artificial endonucleases (e.g. EDTA), lipophilic carriers (e.g., cholesterol, cholic acid, adamantane acetic acid, 1-pyrene butyric acid, dihydrotestosterone, 1,3-Bis-O(hexadecyl)glycerol, geranyloxyhexyl group, hexadecylglycerol, borneol, menthol, 1,3-propanediol, heptadecyl group, palmitic acid, myristic acid, O3-(oleoyl)lithocholic acid, O3-(oleoyl)cholenic acid, dimethoxytrityl, or phenoxazine) and peptide conjugates (e.g., antennapedia peptide, Tat peptide), alkylating agents, phosphate, amino, mercapto, PEG (e.g., PEG-40K), MPEG, [MPEG]2, polyamino, alkyl, substituted alkyl, radiolabeled markers, enzymes, haptens (e.g. biotin), transport/absorption facilitators (e.g., aspirin, vitamin E, folic acid), synthetic ribonucleases (e.g., imidazole, bisimidazole, histamine, imidazole clusters, acridine-imidazole conjugates, Eu3+ complexes of tetraazamacrocycles).

Terminal modifications can be added for a number of reasons, including as discussed elsewhere herein to modulate activity or to modulate resistance to degradation. Terminal modifications useful for modulating activity include modification of the 5′ end with phosphate or phosphate analogs. E.g., in preferred embodiments iRNA agents, especially antisense strands, are 5′ phosphorylated or include a phosphoryl analog at the 5′ prime terminus. 5′-phosphate modifications include those which are compatible with RISC mediated gene silencing.

Terminal modifications useful for increasing resistance to degradation include

Terminal modifications can also be useful for monitoring distribution, and in such cases the preferred groups to be added include fluorophores, e.g., fluorscein or an Alexa dye, e.g., Alexa 488. Terminal modifications can also be useful for enhancing uptake, useful modifications for this include cholesterol. Terminal modifications can also be useful for cross-linking an RNA agent to another moiety; modifications useful for this include mitomycin C.

Candidate modifications can be evaluated as described below.

The Bases

Adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil are the most common bases found in RNA. These bases can be modified or replaced to provide RNA's having improved properties. E.g., nuclease resistant oligoribonucleotides can be prepared with these bases or with synthetic and natural nucleobases (e.g., inosine, thymine, xanthine, hypoxanthine, nubularine, isoguanisine, or tubercidine) and any one of the above modifications. Alternatively, substituted or modified analogs of any of the above bases, e.g., “unusual bases” and “universal bases,” can be employed. Examples include without limitation 2-aminoadenine, 6-methyl and other alkyl derivatives of adenine and guanine, 2-propyl and other alkyl derivatives of adenine and guanine, 5-halouracil and cytosine, 5-propynyl uracil and cytosine, 6-azo uracil, cytosine and thymine, 5-uracil (pseudouracil), 4-thiouracil, 5-halouracil, 5-(2-aminopropyl)uracil, 5-amino allyl uracil, 8-halo, amino, thiol, thioalkyl, hydroxyl and other 8-substituted adenines and guanines, 5-trifluoromethyl and other 5-substituted uracils and cytosines, 7-methylguanine, 5-substituted pyrimidines, 6-azapyrimidines and N-2, N-6 and O-6 substituted purines, including 2-aminopropyladenine, 5-propynyluracil and 5-propynylcytosine, dihydrouracil, 3-deaza-5-azacytosine, 2-aminopurine, 5-alkyluracil, 7-alkylguanine, 5-alkyl cytosine, 7-deazaadenine, N6, N6-dimethyladenine, 2,6-diaminopurine, 5-amino-allyl-uracil, N3-methyluracil, substituted 1,2,4-triazoles, 2-pyridinone, 5-nitroindole, 3-nitropyrrole, 5-methoxyuracil, uracil-5-oxyacetic acid, 5-methoxycarbonylmethyluracil, 5-methyl-2-thiouracil, 5-methoxycarbonylmethyl-2-thiouracil, 5-methyl aminomethyl-2-thiouracil, 3-(3-amino-3carboxypropyl)uracil, 3-methylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, N⁴-acetyl cytosine, 2-thiocytosine, N6-methyladenine, N6-isopentyladenine, 2-methylthio-N6-isopentenyladenine, N-methylguanines, or O-alkylated bases. Further purines and pyrimidines include those disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,687,808, those disclosed in the Concise Encyclopedia Of Polymer Science And Engineering, pages 858-859, Kroschwitz, J. I., ed. John Wiley & Sons, 1990, and those disclosed by Englisch et al., Angewandte Chemie, International Edition, 1991, 30, 613.

Generally, base changes are less preferred for promoting stability, but they can be useful for other reasons, e.g., some, e.g., 2,6-diaminopurine and 2 amino purine, are fluorescent. Modified bases can reduce target specificity. This should be taken into consideration in the design of iRNA agents.

Candidate modifications can be evaluated as described below.

Evaluation of Candidate RNA's

One can evaluate a candidate RNA agent, e.g., a modified RNA, for a selected property by exposing the agent or modified molecule and a control molecule to the appropriate conditions and evaluating for the presence of the selected property. For example, resistance to a degradent can be evaluated as follows. A candidate modified RNA (and preferably a control molecule, usually the unmodified form) can be exposed to degradative conditions, e.g., exposed to a milieu, which includes a degradative agent, e.g., a nuclease. E.g., one can use a biological sample, e.g., one that is similar to a milieu, which might be encountered, in therapeutic use, e.g., blood or a cellular fraction, e.g., a cell-free homogenate or disrupted cells. The candidate and control could then be evaluated for resistance to degradation by any of a number of approaches. For example, the candidate and control could be labeled, preferably prior to exposure, with, e.g., a radioactive or enzymatic label, or a fluorescent label, such as Cy3 or Cy5. Control and modified RNA's can be incubated with the degradative agent, and optionally a control, e.g., an inactivated, e.g., heat inactivated, degradative agent. A physical parameter, e.g., size, of the modified and control molecules are then determined. They can be determined by a physical method, e.g., by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis or a sizing column, to assess whether the molecule has maintained its original length, or assessed functionally. Alternatively, Northern blot analysis can be used to assay the length of an unlabeled modified molecule.

A functional assay can also be used to evaluate the candidate agent. A functional assay can be applied initially or after an earlier non-functional assay, (e.g., assay for resistance to degradation) to determine if the modification alters the ability of the molecule to silence gene expression. For example, a cell, e.g., a mammalian cell, such as a mouse or human cell, can be co-transfected with a plasmid expressing a fluorescent protein, e.g., GFP, and a candidate RNA agent homologous to the transcript encoding the fluorescent protein (see, e.g., WO 00/44914). For example, a modified dsRNA homologous to the GFP mRNA can be assayed for the ability to inhibit GFP expression by monitoring for a decrease in cell fluorescence, as compared to a control cell, in which the transfection did not include the candidate dsRNA, e.g., controls with no agent added and/or controls with a non-modified RNA added. Efficacy of the candidate agent on gene expression can be assessed by comparing cell fluorescence in the presence of the modified and unmodified dsRNA agents.

In an alternative functional assay, a candidate dsRNA agent homologous to an endogenous mouse gene, preferably a maternally expressed gene, such as c-mos, can be injected into an immature mouse oocyte to assess the ability of the agent to inhibit gene expression in vivo (see, e.g., WO 01/36646). A phenotype of the oocyte, e.g., the ability to maintain arrest in metaphase II, can be monitored as an indicator that the agent is inhibiting expression. For example, cleavage of c-mos mRNA by a dsRNA agent would cause the oocyte to exit metaphase arrest and initiate parthenogenetic development (Colledge et al. Nature 370: 65-68, 1994; Hashimoto et al. Nature, 370:68-71, 1994). The effect of the modified agent on target RNA levels can be verified by Northern blot to assay for a decrease in the level of target mRNA, or by Western blot to assay for a decrease in the level of target protein, as compared to a negative control. Controls can include cells in which with no agent is added and/or cells in which a non-modified RNA is added.

Nuclease Resistant Monomers

In one aspect, the invention features a nuclease resistant monomer, or a an iRNA agent which incorporates a nuclease resistant monomer (NMR), such as those described herein and those described in copending, co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/469,612 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-069P01), filed on May 9, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having a NMR and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates a NMR.

An iRNA agent can include monomers which have been modifed so as to inhibit degradation, e.g., by nucleases, e.g., endonucleases or exonucleases, found in the body of a subject. These monomers are referred to herein as NRM's, or nuclease resistance promoting monomers or modifications. In many cases these modifications will modulate other properties of the iRNA agent as well, e.g., the ability to interact with a protein, e.g., a transport protein, e.g., serum albumin, or a member of the RISC (RNA-induced Silencing Complex), or the ability of the first and second sequences to form a duplex with one another or to form a duplex with another sequence, e.g., a target molecule.

While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that modifications of the sugar, base, and/or phosphate backbone in an iRNA agent can enhance endonuclease and exonuclease resistance, and can enhance interactions with transporter proteins and one or more of the functional components of the RISC complex. Preferred modifications are those that increase exonuclease and endonuclease resistance and thus prolong the halflife of the iRNA agent prior to interaction with the RISC complex, but at the same time do not render the iRNA agent resistant to endonuclease activity in the RISC complex. Again, while not wishing to be bound by any theory, it is believed that placement of the modifications at or near the 3′ and/or 5′ end of antisense strands can result in iRNA agents that meet the preferred nuclease resistance criteria delineated above. Again, still while not wishing to be bound by any theory, it is believed that placement of the modifications at e.g., the middle of a sense strand can result in iRNA agents that are relatively less likely to undergo off-targeting.

Modifications described herein can be incorporated into any double-standed RNA and RNA-like molecule described herein, e.g., an iRNA agent. An iRNA agent may include a duplex comprising a hybridized sense and antisense strand, in which the antisense strand and/or the sense strand may include one or more of the modifications described herein. The antisense strand may include modifications at the 3′ end and/or the 5′ end and/or at one or more positions that occur 1-6 (e.g., 1-5, 1-4, 1-3, 1-2) nucleotides from either end of the strand. The sense strand may include modifications at the 3′ end and/or the 5′ end and/or at any one of the intervening positions between the two ends of the strand. The iRNA agent may also include a duplex comprising two hybridized antisense strands. The first and/or the second antisense strand may include one or more of the modifications described herein. Thus, one and/or both antisense strands may include modifications at the 3′ end and/or the 5′ end and/or at one or more positions that occur 1-6 (e.g., 1-5, 1-4, 1-3, 1-2) nucleotides from either end of the strand. Particular configurations are discussed below.

Modifications that can be useful for producing iRNA agents that meet the preferred nuclease resistance criteria delineated above can include one or more of the following chemical and/or stereochemical modifications of the sugar, base, and/or phosphate backbone:

(i) chiral (S_(P)) thioates. Thus, preferred NRM's include nucleotide dimers with an enriched or pure for a particular chiral form of a modified phosphate group containing a heteroatom at the nonbridging position, e.g., Sp or Rp, at the position X, where this is the position normally occupied by the oxygen. The atom at X can also be S, Se, Nr₂, or Br₃. When X is S, enriched or chirally pure Sp linkage is preferred. Enriched means at least 70, 80, 90, 95, or 99% of the preferred form. Such NRM's are discussed in more detail below;

(ii) attachment of one or more cationic groups to the sugar, base, and/or the phosphorus atom of a phosphate or modified phosphate backbone moiety. Thus, preferred NRM's include monomers at the terminal position derivitized at a cationic group. As the 5′ end of an antisense sequence should have a terminal —OH or phosphate group this NRM is preferraly not used at th 5′ end of an anti-sense sequence. The group should be attached at a position on the base which minimizes intererence with H bond formation and hybridization, e.g., away form the face which intereacts with the complementary base on the other strand, e.g, at the 5′ position of a pyrimidine or a 7-position of a purine. These are discussed in more detail below;

(iii) nonphosphate linkages at the termini. Thus, preferred NRM's include Non-phosphate linkages, e.g., a linkage of 4 atoms which confers greater resistance to cleavage than does a phosphate bond. Examples include 3′ CH2-NCH₃—O—CH2-5′ and 3′ CH2-NH—(O═)—CH2-5′;

(iv) 3′-bridging thiophosphates and 5′-bridging thiophosphates. Thus, preferred NRM's can included these structures;

(v) L-RNA, 2′-5′ likages, inverted linkages, a-nucleosides. Thus, other preferred NRM's include: L nucleosides and dimeric nucleotides derived from L-nucleosides; 2′-5′ phosphate, non-phosphate and modified phosphate linkages (e.g., thiophospahtes, phosphoramidates and boronophosphates); dimers having inverted linkages, e.g., 3′-3′ or 5′-5′ linkages; monomers having an alpha linkage at the 1′ site on the sugar, e.g., the structures described herein having an alpha linkage;

(vi) conjugate groups. Thus, preferred NRM's can include e.g., a targeting moiety or a conjugated ligand described herein conjugated with the monomer, e.g., through the sugar, base, or backbone;

(vi) abasic linkages. Thus, preferred NRM's can include an abasic monomer, e.g., an abasic monomer as described herein (e.g., a nucleobaseless monomer); an aromatic or heterocyclic or polyheterocyclic aromatic monomer as described herein; and

(vii) 5′-phosphonates and 5′-phosphate prodrugs. Thus, preferred NRM's include monomers, preferably at the terminal position, e.g., the 5′ position, in which one or more atoms of the phosphate group is derivatized with a protecting group, which protecting group or groups, are removed as a result of the action of a component in the subject's body, e.g, a carboxyesterase or an enzyme present in the subject's body. E.g., a phosphate prodrug in which a carboxy esterase cleaves the protected molecule resulting in the production of a thioate anion which attacks a carbon adjacent to the O of a phosphate and resulting in the production of an uprotected phosphate.

One or more different NRM modifications can be introduced into an iRNA agent or into a sequence of an iRNA agent. An NRM modification can be used more than once in a sequence or in an iRNA agent. As some NRM's interfere with hybridization the total number incorporated, should be such that acceptable levels of iRNA agent duplex formation are maintainted.

In some embodiments NRM modifications are introduced into the terminal the cleavage site or in the cleavage region of a sequence (a sense strand or sequence) which does not target a desired sequence or gene in the subject. This can reduce off-target silencing.

Chiral S_(P) Thioates

A modification can include the alteration, e.g., replacement, of one or both of the non-linking (X and Y) phosphate oxygens and/or of one or more of the linking (W and Z) phosphate oxygens. Formula X below depicts a phosphate moiety linking two sugar/sugar surrogate-base moities, SB₁ and SB₂.

In certain embodiments, one of the non-linking phosphate oxygens in the phosphate backbone moiety (X and Y) can be replaced by any one of the following: S, Se, BR₃ (R is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, etc.), C (i.e., an alkyl group, an aryl group, etc.), H, NR₂ (R is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, etc.), or OR (R is alkyl or aryl). The phosphorus atom in an unmodified phosphate group is achiral. However, replacement of one of the non-linking oxygens with one of the above atoms or groups of atoms renders the phosphorus atom chiral; in other words a phosphorus atom in a phosphate group modified in this way is a stereogenic center. The stereogenic phosphorus atom can possess either the “R” configuration (herein R_(P)) or the “S” configuration (herein S_(P)). Thus if 60% of a population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms have the R_(P) configuration, then the remaining 40% of the population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms have the S_(P) configuration.

In some embodiments, iRNA agents, having phosphate groups in which a phosphate non-linking oxygen has been replaced by another atom or group of atoms, may contain a population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms in which at least about 50% of these atoms (e.g., at least about 60% of these atoms, at least about 70% of these atoms, at least about 80% of these atoms, at least about 90% of these atoms, at least about 95% of these atoms, at least about 98% of these atoms, at least about 99% of these atoms) have the S_(P) configuration. Alternatively, iRNA agents having phosphate groups in which a phosphate non-linking oxygen has been replaced by another atom or group of atoms may contain a population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms in which at least about 50% of these atoms (e.g., at least about 60% of these atoms, at least about 70% of these atoms, at least about 80% of these atoms, at least about 90% of these atoms, at least about 95% of these atoms, at least about 98% of these atoms, at least about 99% of these atoms) have the R_(P) configuration. In other embodiments, the population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms may have the S_(P) configuration and may be substantially free of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the R_(P) configuration. In still other embodiments, the population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms may have the R_(P) configuration and may be substantially free of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the S_(P) configuration. As used herein, the phrase “substantially free of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the R_(P) configuration” means that moieties containing stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the R_(P) configuration cannot be detected by conventional methods known in the art (chiral HPLC, ¹H NMR analysis using chiral shift reagents, etc.). As used herein, the phrase “substantially free of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the S_(P) configuration” means that moieties containing stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the S_(P) configuration cannot be detected by conventional methods known in the art (chiral HPLC, ¹H NMR analysis using chiral shift reagents, etc.).

In a preferred embodiment, modified iRNA agents contain a phosphorothioate group, i.e., a phosphate groups in which a phosphate non-linking oxygen has been replaced by a sulfur atom. In an especially preferred embodiment, the population of phosphorothioate stereogenic phosphorus atoms may have the S_(P) configuration and be substantially free of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having the R_(P) configuration.

Phosphorothioates may be incorporated into iRNA agents using dimers e.g., formulas X-1 and X-2. The former can be used to introduce phosphorothioate

at the 3′ end of a strand, while the latter can be used to introduce this modification at the 5′ end or at a position that occurs e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 nucleotides from either end of the strand. In the above formulas, Y can be 2-cyanoethoxy, W and Z can be O, R₂′ can be, e.g., a substituent that can impart the C-3 endo configuration to the sugar (e.g., OH, F, OCH₃), DMT is dimethoxytrityl, and “BASE” can be a natural, unusual, or a universal base.

X-1 and X-2 can be prepared using chiral reagents or directing groups that can result in phosphorothioate-containing dimers having a population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms having essentially only the R_(P) configuration (i.e., being substantially free of the S_(P) configuration) or only the S_(P) configuration (i.e., being substantially free of the R_(P) configuration). Alternatively, dimers can be prepared having a population of stereogenic phosphorus atoms in which about 50% of the atoms have the R_(P) configuration and about 50% of the atoms have the S_(P) configuration. Dimers having stereogenic phosphorus atoms with the R_(P) configuration can be identified and separated from dimers having stereogenic phosphorus atoms with the S_(P) configuration using e.g., enzymatic degradation and/or conventional chromatography techniques.

Cationic Groups

Modifications can also include attachment of one or more cationic groups to the sugar, base, and/or the phosphorus atom of a phosphate or modified phosphate backbone moiety. A cationic group can be attached to any atom capable of substitution on a natural, unusual or universal base. A preferred position is one that does not interfere with hybridization, i.e., does not interfere with the hydrogen bonding interactions needed for base pairing. A cationic group can be attached e.g., through the C2′ position of a sugar or analogous position in a cyclic or acyclic sugar surrogate. Cationic groups can include e.g., protonated amino groups, derived from e.g., O-AMINE (AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino, ethylene diamine, polyamino); aminoalkoxy, e.g., O(CH₂), AMINE, (e.g., AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino, ethylene diamine, polyamino); amino (e.g. NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, diheteroaryl amino, or amino acid); or NH(CH₂CH₂NH)_(n)CH₂CH₂-AMINE (AMINE=NH₂; alkylamino, dialkylamino, heterocyclyl, arylamino, diaryl amino, heteroaryl amino, or diheteroaryl amino).

Nonphosphate Linkages

Modifications can also include the incorporation of nonphosphate linkages at the 5′ and/or 3′ end of a strand. Examples of nonphosphate linkages which can replace the phosphate group include methyl phosphonate, hydroxylamino, siloxane, carbonate, carboxymethyl, carbamate, amide, thioether, ethylene oxide linker, sulfonate, sulfonamide, thioformacetal, formacetal, oxime, methyleneimino, methylenemethylimino, methylenehydrazo, methylenedimethylhydrazo and methyleneoxymethylimino. Preferred replacements include the methyl phosphonate and hydroxylamino groups.

3 ‘-Bridging Thiophosphates and 5’-Bridging Thiophosphates; Locked-RNA, 2 ‘-5’ Likages, Inverted Linkages, α-Nucleosides; Conjugate Groups; Abasic Linkages; and 5 ‘-Phosphonates and 5’-Phosphate Prodrugs

Referring to formula X above, modifications can include replacement of one of the bridging or linking phosphate oxygens in the phosphate backbone moiety (W and Z). Unlike the situation where only one of X or Y is altered, the phosphorus center in the phosphorodithioates is achiral which precludes the formation of iRNA agents containing a stereogenic phosphorus atom.

Modifications can also include linking two sugars via a phosphate or modified phosphate group through the 2′ position of a first sugar and the 5′ position of a second sugar. Also contemplated are inverted linkages in which both a first and second sugar are eached linked through the respective3′ positions. Modified RNA's can also include “abasic” sugars, which lack a nucleobase at C-1′. The sugar group can also contain one or more carbons that possess the opposite stereochemical configuration than that of the corresponding carbon in ribose. Thus, a modified iRNA agent can include nucleotides containing e.g., arabinose, as the sugar. In another subset of this modification, the natural, unusual, or universal base may have the a-configuration. Modifcations can also include L-RNA.

Modifications can also include 5′-phosphonates, e.g., P(O)(O⁻)₂-X—O^(5′)-sugar (X=CH2, CF2, CHF and 5′-phosphate prodrugs, e.g., P(O)[OCH2CH2SC(O)R]2CH2C^(5′)-sugar. In the latter case, the prodrug groups may be decomposed via reaction first with carboxy esterases. The remaining ethyl thiolate group via intramolecular S_(N)2 displacement can depart as episulfide to afford the underivatized phosphate group.

Modification can also include the addition of conjugating groups described elsewhere herein, which are prefereably attached to an iRNA agent through any amino group available for conjugation.

Nuclease resistant modifications include some which can be placed only at the terminus and others which can go at any position. Generally the modifications that can inhibit hybridization so it is preferably to use them only in terminal regions, and preferable to not use them at the cleavage site or in the cleavage region of an sequence which targets a subject sequence or gene. The can be used anywhere in a sense sequence, provided that sufficient hybridization between the two sequences of the iRNA agent is maintained. In some embodiments it is desirable to put the NRM at the cleavage site or in the cleavage region of a sequence which does not target a subject sequence or gene, as it can minimize off-target silencing.

In addition, an iRNA agent described herein can have an overhang which does not form a duplex structure with the other sequence of the iRNA agent—it is an overhang, but it does hybridize, either with itself, or with another nucleic acid, other than the other sequence of the iRNA agent.

In most cases, the nuclease-resistance promoting modifications will be distributed differently depending on whether the sequence will target a sequence in the subject (often referred to as an anti-sense sequence) or will not target a sequence in the subject (often referred to as a sense sequence). If a sequence is to target a sequence in the subject, modifications which interfer with or inhibit endonuclease cleavage should not be inserted in the region which is subject to RISC mediated cleavage, e.g., the cleavage site or the cleavage region (As described in Elbashir et al., 2001, Genes and Dev. 15: 188, hereby incorporated by reference, cleavage of the target occurs about in the middle of a 20 or 21 nt guide RNA, or about 10 or 11 nucleotides upstream of the first nucleotide which is complementary to the guide sequence. As used herein cleavage site refers to the nucleotide on either side of the cleavage site, on the target or on the iRNA agent strand which hybridizes to it. Cleavage region means an nucleotide with 1, 2, or 3 nucleotides of the cleave site, in either direction.)

Such modifications can be introduced into the terminal regions, e.g., at the terminal position or with 2, 3, 4, or 5 positions of the terminus, of a sequence which targets or a sequence which does not target a sequence in the subject.

An iRNA agent can have a first and a second strand chosen from the following:

a first strand which does not target a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end;

a first strand which does not target a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end;

a first strand which does not target a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end and which has a NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end;

a second strand which targets a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end (5′ end NRM modifications are preferentially not at the terminus but rather at a position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 away from the 5′ terminus of an antisense strand);

a second strand which targets a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end and which has a NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end;

a second strand which targets a sequence and which preferably does not have an an NRM modification at the cleavage site or in the cleavage region;

a second strand which targets a sequence and which does not have an NRM modification at the cleavage site or in the cleavage region and one or more of an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end, a NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end, or NRM modifications at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from both the 3′ and the 5′ end(5′ end NRM modifications are preferentially not at the terminus but rather at a position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 away from the 5′ terminus of an antisense strand).

An iRNA agent can also target two sequences and can have a first and second strand chosen from:

a first strand which targets a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end;

a first strand which targets a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end (5′ end NRM modifications are preferentially not at the terminus but rather at a position 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 away from the 5′ terminus of an antisense strand);

a first strand which targets a sequence and which has an NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 3′ end and which has a NRM modification at or within 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 positions from the 5′ end;

Ribose Mimics

In one aspect, the invention features a ribose mimic, or an iRNA agent which incorporates a ribose mimic, such as those described herein and those described in copending co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/454,962 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-064P01), filed on Mar. 13, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having a ribose mimic and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates a ribose mimic.

Thus, an aspect of the invention features an iRNA agent that includes a secondary hydroxyl group, which can increase efficacy and/or confer nuclease resistance to the agent. Nucleases, e.g., cellular nucleases, can hydrolyze nucleic acid phosphodiester bonds, resulting in partial or complete degradation of the nucleic acid. The secondary hydroxy group confers nuclease resistance to an iRNA agent by rendering the iRNA agent less prone to nuclease degradation relative to an iRNA which lacks the modification. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that the presence of a secondary hydroxyl group on the iRNA agent can act as a structural mimic of a 3′ ribose hydroxyl group, thereby causing it to be less susceptible to degradation.

The secondary hydroxyl group refers to an “OH” radical that is attached to a carbon atom substituted by two other carbons and a hydrogen. The secondary hydroxyl group that confers nuclease resistance as described above can be part of any acyclic carbon-containing group. The hydroxyl may also be part of any cyclic carbon-containing group, and preferably one or more of the following conditions is met (1) there is no ribose moiety between the hydroxyl group and the terminal phosphate group or (2) the hydroxyl group is not on a sugar moiety which is coupled to a base. The hydroxyl group is located at least two bonds (e.g., at least three bonds away, at least four bonds away, at least five bonds away, at least six bonds away, at least seven bonds away, at least eight bonds away, at least nine bonds away, at least ten bonds away, etc.) from the terminal phosphate group phosphorus of the iRNA agent. In preferred embodiments, there are five intervening bonds between the terminal phosphate group phosphorus and the secondary hydroxyl group.

Preferred iRNA agent delivery modules with five intervening bonds between the terminal phosphate group phosphorus and the secondary hydroxyl group have the following structure (see formula Y below):

Referring to formula Y, A is an iRNA agent, including any iRNA agent described herein. The iRNA agent may be connected directly or indirectly (e.g., through a spacer or linker) to “W” of the phosphate group.

Ribose Replacement Monomer Subunits

iRNA agents can be modified in a number of ways which can optimize one or more characteristics of the iRNA agent. In one aspect, the invention features a ribose replacement monomer subunit (RRMS), or a an iRNA agent which incorporates a RRMS, such as those described herein and those described in one or more of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/493,986 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-079P01), filed on Aug. 8, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference; U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/494,597 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-080P01), filed on Aug. 11, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference; U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/506,341 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-080P02), filed on Sep. 26, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference; and in U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/158,453 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-080P03), filed on Nov. 7, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having a RRMS and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an archtecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates a RRMS.

The ribose sugar of one or more ribonucleotide subunits of an iRNA agent can be replaced with another moiety, e.g., a non-carbohydrate (preferably cyclic) carrier. A ribonucleotide subunit in which the ribose sugar of the subunit has been so replaced is referred to herein as a ribose replacement modification subunit (RRMS). A cyclic carrier may be a carbocyclic ring system, i.e., all ring atoms are carbon atoms, or a heterocyclic ring system, i.e., one or more ring atoms may be a heteroatom, e.g., nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur. The cyclic carrier may be a monocyclic ring system, or may contain two or more rings, e.g. fused rings. The cyclic carrier may be a fully saturated ring system, or it may contain one or more double bonds.

The carriers further include (i) at least two “backbone attachment points” and (ii) at least one “tethering attachment point.” A “backbone attachment point” as used herein refers to a functional group, e.g. a hydroxyl group, or generally, a bond available for, and that is suitable for incorporation of the carrier into the backbone, e.g., the phosphate, or modified phosphate, e.g., sulfur containing, backbone, of a ribonucleic acid. A “tethering attachment point” as used herein refers to a constituent ring atom of the cyclic carrier, e.g., a carbon atom or a heteroatom (distinct from an atom which provides a backbone attachment point), that connects a selected moiety. The moiety can be, e.g., a ligand, e.g., a targeting or delivery moiety, or a moiety which alters a physical property, e.g., lipophilicity, of an iRNA agent. Optionally, the selected moiety is connected by an intervening tether to the cyclic carrier. Thus, it will include a functional group, e.g., an amino group, or generally, provide a bond, that is suitable for incorporation or tethering of another chemical entity, e.g., a ligand to the constituent ring.

Incorporation of one or more RRMSs described herein into an RNA agent, e.g., an iRNA agent, particularly when tethered to an appropriate entity, can confer one or more new properties to the RNA agent and/or alter, enhance or modulate one or more existing properties in the RNA molecule. E.g., it can alter one or more of lipophilicity or nuclease resistance. Incorporation of one or more RRMSs described herein into an iRNA agent can, particularly when the RRMS is tethered to an appropriate entity, modulate, e.g., increase, binding affinity of an iRNA agent to a target mRNA, change the geometry of the duplex form of the iRNA agent, alter distribution or target the iRNA agent to a particular part of the body, or modify the interaction with nucleic acid binding proteins (e.g., during RISC formation and strand separation).

Accordingly, in one aspect, the invention features, an iRNA agent preferably comprising a first strand and a second strand, wherein at least one subunit having a formula (R-1) is incorporated into at least one of said strands.

Referring to formula (R-1), X is N(CO)R⁷, NR⁷ or CH₂; Y is NR⁷, O, S, CR⁹R¹⁰, or absent; and Z is CR¹¹R¹² or absent.

Each of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ is, independently, H, OR^(a), OR^(b), (CH₂)_(n)OR^(a), or (CH₂)_(n)OR^(b), provided that at least one of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ is OR^(a) or OR^(b) and that at least one of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ is (CH₂)_(n)OR^(a), or (CH₂)_(n)OR^(b) (when the RRMS is terminal, one of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ will include R^(a) and one will include R^(b); when the RRMS is internal, two of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ will each include an R^(b)); further provided that preferably OR^(a) may only be present with (CH₂)_(n)OR^(b) and (CH₂)_(n)OR^(a) may only be present with OR^(b).

Each of R⁵, R⁶, R¹¹, and R¹² is, independently, H, C₁-C₆ alkyl optionally substituted with 1-3 R³, or C(O)NHR⁷; or R⁵ and R¹¹ together are C₃-C₈ cycloalkyl optionally substituted with R¹⁴.

R⁷ is C₁-C₂₀ alkyl substituted with NR^(c)R^(d); R⁸ is C₁-C₆ alkyl; R¹³ is hydroxy, C₁-C₄ alkoxy, or halo; and R¹⁴ is NR^(c)R⁷.

R^(a) is:

and

R^(b) is:

Each of A and C is, independently, O or S.

B is OH, O⁻, or

R^(c) is H or C₁-C₆ alkyl; R^(d) is H or a ligand; and n is 1-4.

In a preferred embodiment the ribose is replaced with a pyrroline scaffold, and X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is absent.

In other preferred embodiments the ribose is replaced with a piperidine scaffold, and X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is CR¹¹R¹².

In other preferred embodiments the ribose is replaced with a piperazine scaffold, and X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is NR⁸, and Z is CR¹¹R¹².

In other preferred embodiments the ribose is replaced with a morpholino scaffold, and X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is O, and Z is CR¹¹R¹².

In other preferred embodiments, the ribose is replaced with a hydroxyproline scaffold.

RRMSs described herein may be incorporated into any double-stranded RNA-like molecule described herein, e.g., an iRNA agent. An iRNA agent may include a duplex comprising a hybridized sense and antisense strand, in which the antisense strand and/or the sense strand may include one or more of the RRMSs described herein. An RRMS can be introduced at one or more points in one or both strands of a double-stranded iRNA agent. An RRMS can be placed at or near (within 1, 2, or 3 positions) of the 3′ or 5′ end of the sense strand or at near (within 2 or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand. In some embodiments it is preferred to not have an RRMS at or near (within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 5′ end of the antisense strand. An RRMS can be internal, and will preferably be positioned in regions not critical for antisense binding to the target.

In an embodiment, an iRNA agent may have an RRMS at (or within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand. In an embodiment, an iRNA agent may have an RRMS at (or within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand and at (or within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the sense strand. In an embodiment, an iRNA agent may have an RRMS at (or within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand and an RRMS at the 5′ end of the sense strand, in which both ligands are located at the same end of the iRNA agent.

In certain embodiments, two ligands are tethered, preferably, one on each strand and are hydrophobic moieties. While not wishing to be bound by theory, it is believed that pairing of the hydrophobic ligands can stabilize the iRNA agent via intermolecular van der Waals interactions.

In an embodiment, an iRNA agent may have an RRMS at (or within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand and an RRMS at the 5′ end of the sense strand, in which both RRMSs may share the same ligand (e.g., cholic acid) via connection of their individual tethers to separate positions on the ligand. A ligand shared between two proximal RRMSs is referred to herein as a “hairpin ligand.”

In other embodiments, an iRNA agent may have an RRMS at the 3′ end of the sense strand and an RRMS at an internal position of the sense strand. An iRNA agent may have an RRMS at an internal position of the sense strand; or may have an RRMS at an internal position of the antisense strand; or may have an RRMS at an internal position of the sense strand and an RRMS at an internal position of the antisense strand.

In preferred embodiments the iRNA agent includes a first and second sequences, which are preferably two separate molecules as opposed to two sequences located on the same strand, have sufficient complementarity to each other to hybridize (and thereby form a duplex region), e.g., under physiological conditions, e.g., under physiological conditions but not in contact with a helicase or other unwinding enzyme.

It is preferred that the first and second sequences be chosen such that the ds iRNA agent includes a single strand or unpaired region at one or both ends of the molecule. Thus, a ds iRNA agent contains first and second sequences, preferable paired to contain an overhang, e.g., one or two 5′ or 3′ overhangs but preferably a 3′ overhang of 2-3 nucleotides. Most embodiments will have a 3′ overhang. Preferred sRNA agents will have single-stranded overhangs, preferably 3′ overhangs, of 1 or preferably 2 or 3 nucleotides in length at each end. The overhangs can be the result of one strand being longer than the other, or the result of two strands of the same length being staggered. 5′ ends are preferably phosphorylated.

An RNA agent, e.g., an iRNA agent, containing a preferred, but nonlimiting RRMS is presented as formula (R-2) in FIG. 4. The carrier includes two “backbone attachment points” (hydroxyl groups), a “tethering attachment point,” and a ligand, which is connected indirectly to the carrier via an intervening tether. The RRMS may be the 5′ or 3′ terminal subunit of the RNA molecule, i.e., one of the two “W” groups may be a hydroxyl group, and the other “W” group may be a chain of two or more unmodified or modified ribonucleotides. Alternatively, the RRMS may occupy an internal position, and both “W” groups may be one or more unmodified or modified ribonucleotides. More than one RRMS may be present in a RNA molecule, e.g., an iRNA agent.

The modified RNA molecule of formula (R-2) can be obtained using oligonucleotide synthetic methods known in the art. In a preferred embodiment, the modified RNA molecule of formula (II) can be prepared by incorporating one or more of the corresponding RRMS monomer compounds (RRMS monomers, see, e.g., A, B, and C in FIG. 4) into a growing sense or antisense strand, utilizing, e.g., phosphoramidite or H-phosphonate coupling strategies.

The RRMS monomers generally include two differently functionalized hydroxyl groups (OFG¹ and OFG² above), which are linked to the carrier molecule (see A in FIG. 4), and a tethering attachment point. As used herein, the term “functionalized hydroxyl group” means that the hydroxyl proton has been replaced by another substituent. As shown in representative structures B and C, one hydroxyl group (OFG¹) on the carrier is functionalized with a protecting group (PG). The other hydroxyl group (OFG²) can be functionalized with either (1) a liquid or solid phase synthesis support reagent (solid circle) directly or indirectly through a linker, L, as in B, or (2) a phosphorus-containing moiety, e.g., a phosphoramidite as in C. The tethering attachment point may be connected to a hydrogen atom, a tether, or a tethered ligand at the time that the monomer is incorporated into the growing sense or antisense strand (see R in Scheme 1). Thus, the tethered ligand can be, but need not be attached to the monomer at the time that the monomer is incorporated into the growing strand. In certain embodiments, the tether, the ligand or the tethered ligand may be linked to a “precursor” RRMS after a “precursor” RRMS monomer has been incorporated into the strand.

The (OFG¹) protecting group may be selected as desired, e.g., from T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 2d. Ed., John Wiley and Sons (1991). The protecting group is preferably stable under amidite synthesis conditions, storage conditions, and oligonucleotide synthesis conditions. Hydroxyl groups, —OH, are nucleophilic groups (i.e., Lewis bases), which react through the oxygen with electrophiles (i.e., Lewis acids). Hydroxyl groups in which the hydrogen has been replaced with a protecting group, e.g., a triarylmethyl group or a trialkylsilyl group, are essentially unreactive as nucleophiles in displacement reactions. Thus, the protected hydroxyl group is useful in preventing e.g., homocoupling of compounds exemplified by structure C during oligonucleotide synthesis. A preferred protecting group is the dimethoxytrityl group.

When the OFG² in B includes a linker, e.g., a long organic linker, connected to a soluble or insoluble support reagent, solution or solid phase synthesis techniques can be employed to build up a chain of natural and/or modified ribonucleotides once OFG¹ is deprotected and free to react as a nucleophile with another nucleoside or monomer containing an electrophilic group (e.g., an amidite group). Alternatively, a natural or modified ribonucleotide or oligoribonucleotide chain can be coupled to monomer C via an amidite group or H-phosphonate group at OFG². Subsequent to this operation, OFG¹ can be deblocked, and the restored nucleophilic hydroxyl group can react with another nucleoside or monomer containing an electrophilic group (see FIG. 1). R′ can be substituted or unsubstituted alkyl or alkenyl. In preferred embodiments, R′ is methyl, allyl or 2-cyanoethyl. R″ may a C₁-C₁₀ alkyl group, preferably it is a branched group containing three or more carbons, e.g., isopropyl.

OFG² in B can be hydroxyl functionalized with a linker, which in turn contains a liquid or solid phase synthesis support reagent at the other linker terminus. The support reagent can be any support medium that can support the monomers described herein. The monomer can be attached to an insoluble support via a linker, L, which allows the monomer (and the growing chain) to be solubilized in the solvent in which the support is placed. The solubilized, yet immobilized, monomer can react with reagents in the surrounding solvent; unreacted reagents and soluble by-products can be readily washed away from the solid support to which the monomer or monomer-derived products is attached. Alternatively, the monomer can be attached to a soluble support moiety, e.g., polyethylene glycol (PEG) and liquid phase synthesis techniques can be used to build up the chain. Linker and support medium selection is within skill of the art. Generally the linker may be —C(O)(CH₂)_(q)C(O)—, or —C(O)(CH₂)_(q)S—, preferably, it is oxalyl, succinyl or thioglycolyl. Standard control pore glass solid phase synthesis supports can not be used in conjunction with fluoride labile 5′ silyl protecting groups because the glass is degraded by fluoride with a significant reduction in the amount of full-length product. Fluoride-stable polystyrene based supports or PEG are preferred.

Preferred carriers have the general formula (R-3) provided below. (In that structure preferred backbone attachment points can be chosen from R¹ or R²; R³ or R⁴; or R⁹ and R¹⁰ if Y is CR⁹R¹⁰ (two positions are chosen to give two backbone attachment points, e.g., R¹ and R⁴, or R⁴ and R⁹. Preferred tethering attachment points include R⁷; R⁵ or R⁶ when X is CH₂. The carriers are described below as an entity, which can be incorporated into a strand. Thus, it is understood that the structures also encompass the situations wherein one (in the case of a terminal position) or two (in the case of an internal position) of the attachment points, e.g., R¹ or R²; R³ or R⁴; or R⁹ or R¹⁰ (when Y is)CR⁹R¹⁰, is connected to the phosphate, or modified phosphate, e.g., sulfur containing, backbone. E.g., one of the above-named R groups can be —CH2-, wherein one bond is connected to the carrier and one to a backbone atom, e.g., a linking oxygen or a central phosphorus atom.)

X is N(CO)R⁷, NR⁷ or CH₂; Y is NR⁸, O, S, CR⁹R¹⁰; and Z is CR¹¹R¹² or absent.

Each of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ is, independently, H, OR¹, or (CH₂)_(n)OR^(b), provided that at least two of R¹, R², R³, R⁴, R⁹, and R¹⁰ are OR¹⁰ and/or (CH₂)_(n)OR^(b).

Each of R⁵, R⁶, R¹¹, and R¹² is, independently, a ligand, H, C₁-C₆ alkyl optionally substituted with 1-3 R¹³, or C(O)NHR⁷; or R⁵ and R¹¹ together are C₃-C₈ cycloalkyl optionally substituted with R¹⁴.

L is —C(O)(CH₂)_(q)C(O)-, or —C(O)(CH₂)_(q)S-; R^(a) is CAr₃; R^(b) is P(O)(O⁻)H, P(OR¹⁵)N(R¹⁶)₂ or L-R¹⁷; R^(c) is H or C₁-C₆ alkyl; and R^(d) is H or a ligand.

Each Ar is, independently, C₆-C₁₀ aryl optionally substituted with C₁-C₄ alkoxy; n is 1-4; and q is 0-4.

Exemplary carriers include those in which, e.g., X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is absent; or X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is CR¹¹R¹², or X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is NR⁸, and Z is CR¹¹R¹², or X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is O, and Z is CR¹¹R¹²; or X is CH₂; Y is CR⁹R¹⁰; Z is CR¹¹R¹², and R⁵ and R¹¹ together form C₆ cycloalkyl (H, z=2), or the indane ring system, e.g., X is CH₂; Y is CR⁹R¹⁰; Z is CR¹¹R¹², and R⁵ and R¹¹ together form C₅ cycloalkyl (H, z=1).

In certain embodiments, the carrier may be based on the pyrroline ring system or the 3-hydroxyproline ring system, e.g., X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is absent (D). OFG¹ is preferably attached to a primary carbon, e.g., an exocyclic alkylene

group, e.g., a methylene group, connected to one of the carbons in the five-membered ring (—CH₂OFG¹ in D). OFG² is preferably attached directly to one of the carbons in the five-membered ring (—OFG² in D). For the pyrroline-based carriers, —CH₂OFG¹ may be attached to C-2 and OFG² may be attached to C-3; or —CH₂OFG¹ may be attached to C-3 and OFG² may be attached to C-4. In certain embodiments, CH₂OFG¹ and OFG² may be geminally substituted to one of the above-referenced carbons. For the 3-hydroxyproline-based carriers, —CH₂OFG¹ may be attached to C-2 and OFG² may be attached to C-4. The pyrroline- and 3-hydroxyproline-based monomers may therefore contain linkages (e.g., carbon-carbon bonds) wherein bond rotation is restricted about that particular linkage, e.g. restriction resulting from the presence of a ring. Thus, CH₂OFG¹ and OFG² may be cis or trans with respect to one another in any of the pairings delineated above Accordingly, all cis/trans isomers are expressly included. The monomers may also contain one or more asymmetric centers and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures. All such isomeric forms of the monomers are expressly included. The tethering attachment point is preferably nitrogen.

In certain embodiments, the carrier may be based on the piperidine ring system (E), e.g., X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is CR⁹R¹⁰, and Z is CR¹¹R¹². OFG¹ is preferably

attached to a primary carbon, e.g., an exocyclic alkylene group, e.g., a methylene group (n=1) or ethylene group (n=2), connected to one of the carbons in the six-membered ring [—(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ in E]. OFG² is preferably attached directly to one of the carbons in the six-membered ring (—OFG² in E). —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be disposed in a geminal manner on the ring, i.e., both groups may be attached to the same carbon, e.g., at C-2, C-3, or C-4. Alternatively, —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be disposed in a vicinal manner on the ring, i.e., both groups may be attached to adjacent ring carbon atoms, e.g., —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-2 and OFG² may be attached to C-3; —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-3 and OFG² may be attached to C-2; —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-3 and OFG² may be attached to C-4; or —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-4 and OFG² may be attached to C-3. The piperidine-based monomers may therefore contain linkages (e.g., carbon-carbon bonds) wherein bond rotation is restricted about that particular linkage, e.g. restriction resulting from the presence of a ring. Thus, —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be cis or trans with respect to one another in any of the pairings delineated above. Accordingly, all cis/trans isomers are expressly included. The monomers may also contain one or more asymmetric centers and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures. All such isomeric forms of the monomers are expressly included. The tethering attachment point is preferably nitrogen.

In certain embodiments, the carrier may be based on the piperazine ring system (F), e.g., X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is NR⁸, and Z is CR¹¹R¹², or the morpholine ring system (G), e.g., X is N(CO)R⁷ or NR⁷, Y is O, and Z is CR¹¹R¹². OFG¹ is preferably

attached to a primary carbon, e.g., an exocyclic alkylene group, e.g., a methylene group, connected to one of the carbons in the six-membered ring (—CH₂OFG¹ in F or G). OFG² is preferably attached directly to one of the carbons in the six-membered rings (—OFG² in F or G). For both F and G, —CH₂OFG¹ may be attached to C-2 and OFG² may be attached to C-3; or vice versa. In certain embodiments, CH₂OFG¹ and OFG² may be geminally substituted to one of the above-referenced carbons. The piperazine- and morpholine-based monomers may therefore contain linkages (e.g., carbon-carbon bonds) wherein bond rotation is restricted about that particular linkage, e.g. restriction resulting from the presence of a ring. Thus, CH₂OFG¹ and OFG² may be cis or trans with respect to one another in any of the pairings delineated above. Accordingly, all cis/trans isomers are expressly included. The monomers may also contain one or more asymmetric centers and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures. All such isomeric forms of the monomers are expressly included. R′″ can be, e.g., C₁-C₆ alkyl, preferably CH₃. The tethering attachment point is preferably nitrogen in both F and G.

In certain embodiments, the carrier may be based on the decalin ring system, e.g., X is CH₂; Y is CR⁹R¹⁰; Z is CR¹¹R¹², and R⁵ and R¹¹ together form C₆ cycloalkyl (H, z=2), or the indane ring system, e.g., X is CH₂; Y is CR⁹R¹⁰; Z is CR¹¹R¹², and R⁵ and R¹¹ together form C₅ cycloalkyl (H, z=1). OFG¹ is preferably attached to a primary carbon,

e.g., an exocyclic methylene group (n=1) or ethylene group (n=2) connected to one of C-2, C-3, C-4, or C-5 [—(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ in H]. OFG² is preferably attached directly to one of C-2, C-3, C-4, or C-5 (—OFG² in H). —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be disposed in a geminal manner on the ring, i.e., both groups may be attached to the same carbon, e.g., at C-2, C-3, C-4, or C-5. Alternatively, —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be disposed in a vicinal manner on the ring, i.e., both groups may be attached to adjacent ring carbon atoms, e.g., —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-2 and OFG² may be attached to C-3; —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-3 and OFG² may be attached to C-2; —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-3 and OFG² may be attached to C-4; or —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-4 and OFG² may be attached to C-3; —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-4 and OFG² may be attached to C-5; or —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ may be attached to C-5 and OFG² may be attached to C-4. The decalin or indane-based monomers may therefore contain linkages (e.g., carbon-carbon bonds) wherein bond rotation is restricted about that particular linkage, e.g. restriction resulting from the presence of a ring. Thus, —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be cis or trans with respect to one another in any of the pairings delineated above. Accordingly, all cis/trans isomers are expressly included. The monomers may also contain one or more asymmetric centers and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures. All such isomeric forms of the monomers are expressly included. In a preferred embodiment, the substituents at C-1 and C-6 are trans with respect to one another. The tethering attachment point is preferably C-6 or C-7.

Other carriers may include those based on 3-hydroxyproline (J). Thus, —(CH₂)_(n)OFG¹ and OFG² may be cis or trans with respect to one another. Accordingly, all cis/trans isomers are expressly included. The monomers may also contain one or more asymmetric centers

and thus occur as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, individual diastereomers and diastereomeric mixtures. All such isomeric forms of the monomers are expressly included. The tethering attachment point is preferably nitrogen.

Representative carriers are shown in FIG. 5.

In certain embodiments, a moiety, e.g., a ligand may be connected indirectly to the carrier via the intermediacy of an intervening tether. Tethers are connected to the carrier at the tethering attachment point (TAP) and may include any C₁-C₁₀₀ carbon-containing moiety, (e.g. C₁-C₇₅, C₁-C₅₀, C₁-C₂₀, C₁-C₁₀, C₁-C₆), preferably having at least one nitrogen atom. In preferred embodiments, the nitrogen atom forms part of a terminal amino group on the tether, which may serve as a connection point for the ligand. Preferred tethers (underlined) include TAP-(CH₂)_(n)NH₂; TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)NH₂; or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)NH₂, in which n is 1-6 and R“ ” is C₁-C₆ alkyl. and R^(d) is hydrogen or a ligand. In other embodiments, the nitrogen may form part of a terminal oxyamino group, e.g., —ONH₂, or hydrazino group, —NHNH₂. The tether may optionally be substituted, e.g., with hydroxy, alkoxy, perhaloalkyl, and/or optionally inserted with one or more additional heteroatoms, e.g., N, O, or S. Preferred tethered ligands may include, e.g., TAP-(CH₂)_(n)NH(LIGAND), TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)NH(LIGAND), or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)NH(LIGAND); TAP-(CH₂)_(n)ONH(LIGAND), TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)ONH(LIGAND), or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)ONH(LIGAND); TAP-(CH₂)_(n)NHNH₂(LIGAND), TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)NHNH₂(LIGAND), or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)NHNH₂(LIGAND).

In other embodiments the tether may include an electrophilic moiety, preferably at the terminal position of the tether. Preferred electrophilic moieties include, e.g., an aldehyde, alkyl halide, mesylate, tosylate, nosylate, or brosylate, or an activated carboxylic acid ester, e.g. an NHS ester, or a pentafluorophenyl ester. Preferred tethers (underlined) include TAP-(CH₂)_(n)CHO; TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)CHO; or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)CHO, in which n is 1-6 and R″″ is C₁-C₆ alkyl; or TAP-(CH₂)_(n)C(O)ONHS; TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)C(O)ONHS; or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)C(O)ONHS, in which n is 1-6 and R″″ is C₁-C₆ alkyl; TAP-(CH₂)_(n)C(O)OC₆F₅; TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)C(O)OC₆F₅; or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)C(O)OC₆F₅, in which n is 1-6 and R″″ is C₁-C₆ alkyl; or —(CH₂)_(n)CH₂LG; TAP-C(O)(CH₂)_(n)CH₂LG; or TAP—NR″″(CH₂)_(n)CH₂LG, in which n is 1-6 and R″″ is C₁-C₆ alkyl (LG can be a leaving group, e.g., halide, mesylate, tosylate, nosylate, brosylate). Tethering can be carried out by coupling a nucleophilic group of a ligand, e.g., a thiol or amino group with an electrophilic group on the tether.

Tethered Entities

A wide variety of entities can be tethered to an iRNA agent, e.g., to the carrier of an RRMS. Examples are described below in the context of an RRMS but that is only preferred, entities can be coupled at other points to an iRNA agent.

Preferred moieties are ligands, which are coupled, preferably covalently, either directly or indirectly via an intervening tether, to the RRMS carrier. In preferred embodiments, the ligand is attached to the carrier via an intervening tether. As discussed above, the ligand or tethered ligand may be present on the RRMS monomer when the RRMS monomer is incorporated into the growing strand. In some embodiments, the ligand may be incorporated into a “precursor” RRMS after a “precursor” RRMS monomer has been incorporated into the growing strand. For example, an RRMS monomer having, e.g., an amino-terminated tether (i.e., having no associated ligand), e.g., TAP-(CH₂)_(n)NH₂ may be incorporated into a growing sense or antisense strand. In a subsequent operation, i.e., after incorporation of the precursor monomer into the strand, a ligand having an electrophilic group, e.g., a pentafluorophenyl ester or aldehyde group, can subsequently be attached to the precursor RRMS by coupling the electrophilic group of the ligand with the terminal nucleophilic group of the precursor RRMS tether.

In preferred embodiments, a ligand alters the distribution, targeting or lifetime of an iRNA agent into which it is incorporated. In preferred embodiments a ligand provides an enhanced affinity for a selected target, e.g, molecule, cell or cell type, compartment, e.g., a cellular or organ compartment, tissue, organ or region of the body, as, e.g., compared to a species absent such a ligand. Preferred ligands will not take part in duplex pairing in a duplexed nucleic acid.

Preferred ligands can improve transport, hybridization, and specificity properties and may also improve nuclease resistance of the resultant natural or modified oligoribonucleotide, or a polymeric molecule comprising any combination of monomers described herein and/or natural or modified ribonucleotides.

Ligands in general can include therapeutic modifiers, e.g., for enhancing uptake; diagnostic compounds or reporter groups e.g., for monitoring distribution; cross-linking agents; and nuclease-resistance conferring moieties. General examples include lipids, steroids, vitamins, sugars, proteins, peptides, polyamines, and peptide mimics.

Ligands can include a naturally occurring substance, such as a protein (e.g., human serum albumin (HSA), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or globulin); carbohydrate (e.g., a dextran, pullulan, chitin, chitosan, inulin, cyclodextrin or hyaluronic acid); or a lipid. The ligand may also be a recombinant or synthetic molecule, such as a synthetic polymer, e.g., a synthetic polyamino acid. Examples of polyamino acids include polyamino acid is a polylysine (PLL), poly L-aspartic acid, poly L-glutamic acid, styrene-maleic acid anhydride copolymer, poly(L-lactide-co-glycolied) copolymer, divinyl ether-maleic anhydride copolymer, N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide copolymer (HMPA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyurethane, poly(2-ethylacryllic acid), N-isopropylacrylamide polymers, or polyphosphazine. Example of polyamines include: polyethylenimine, polylysine (PLL), spermine, spermidine, polyamine, pseudopeptide-polyamine, peptidomimetic polyamine, dendrimer polyamine, arginine, amidine, protamine, cationic lipid, cationic porphyrin, quaternary salt of a polyamine, or an alpha helical peptide.

Ligands can also include targeting groups, e.g., a cell or tissue targeting agent, e.g., a lectin, glycoprotein, lipid or protein, e.g., an antibody, that binds to a specified cell type such as a cancer cell, endothelial cell, bone cell. A targeting group can be a thyrotropin, melanotropin, lectin, glycoprotein, surfactant protein A, Mucin carbohydrate, multivalent lactose, multivalent galactose, N-acetyl-galactosamine, N-acetyl-gulucosamine multivalent mannose, multivalent fucose, glycosylated polyaminoacids, multivalent galactose, transferrin, bisphosphonate, polyglutamate, polyaspartate, a lipid, cholesterol, a steroid, bile acid, folate, vitamin B12, biotin, or an RGD peptide or RGD peptide mimetic.

Other examples of ligands include dyes, intercalating agents (e.g. acridines), cross-linkers (e.g. psoralene, mitomycin C), porphyrins (TPPC4, texaphyrin, Sapphyrin), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., phenazine, dihydrophenazine), artificial endonucleases (e.g. EDTA), lipophilic molecules, e.g, cholesterol, cholic acid, adamantane acetic acid, 1-pyrene butyric acid, dihydrotestosterone, 1,3-Bis-O(hexadecyl)glycerol, geranyloxyhexyl group, hexadecylglycerol, borneol, menthol, 1,3-propanediol, heptadecyl group, palmitic acid, myristic acid, O3-(oleoyl)lithocholic acid, O3-(oleoyl)cholenic acid, dimethoxytrityl, or phenoxazine) and peptide conjugates (e.g., antennapedia peptide, Tat peptide), alkylating agents, phosphate, amino, mercapto, PEG (e.g., PEG-40K), MPEG, [MPEG]2, polyamino, alkyl, substituted alkyl, radiolabeled markers, enzymes, haptens (e.g. biotin), transport/absorption facilitators (e.g., aspirin, vitamin E, folic acid), synthetic ribonucleases (e.g., imidazole, bisimidazole, histamine, imidazole clusters, acridine-imidazole conjugates, Eu3+ complexes of tetraazamacrocycles), dinitrophenyl, HRP, or AP.

Ligands can be proteins, e.g., glycoproteins, or peptides, e.g., molecules having a specific affinity for a co-ligand, or antibodies e.g., an antibody, that binds to a specified cell type such as a cancer cell, endothelial cell, or bone cell. Ligands may also include hormones and hormone receptors. They can also include non-peptidic species, such as lipids, lectins, carbohydrates, vitamins, cofactors, multivalent lactose, multivalent galactose, N-acetyl-galactosamine, N-acetyl-gulucosamine multivalent mannose, or multivalent fucose. The ligand can be, for example, a lipopolysaccharide, an activator of p38 MAP kinase, or an activator of NF-κB.

The ligand can be a substance, e.g, a drug, which can increase the uptake of the iRNA agent into the cell, for example, by disrupting the cell's cytoskeleton, e.g., by disrupting the cell's microtubules, microfilaments, and/or intermediate filaments. The drug can be, for example, taxon, vincristine, vinblastine, cytochalasin, nocodazole, japlakinolide, latrunculin A, phalloidin, swinholide A, indanocine, or myoservin.

The ligand can increase the uptake of the iRNA agent into the cell by activating an inflammatory response, for example. Exemplary ligands that would have such an effect include tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), interleukin-1 beta, or gamma interferon.

In one aspect, the ligand is a lipid or lipid-based molecule. Such a lipid or lipid-based molecule preferably binds a serum protein, e.g., human serum albumin (HSA). An HSA binding ligand allows for distribution of the conjugate to a target tissue, e.g., a non-kidney target tissue of the body. Preferably, the target tissue is the liver, preferably parenchymal cells of the liver. Other molecules that can bind HSA can also be used as ligands. For example, neproxin or aspirin can be used. A lipid or lipid-based ligand can (a) increase resistance to degradation of the conjugate, (b) increase targeting or transport into a target cell or cell membrane, and/or (c) can be used to adjust binding to a seru protein, e.g., HSA.

A lipid based ligand can be used to modulate, e.g., control the binding of the conjugate to a target tissue. For example, a lipid or lipid-based ligand that binds to HSA more strongly will be less likely to be targeted to the kidney and therefore less likely to be cleared from the body. A lipid or lipid-based ligand that binds to HSA less strongly can be used to target the conjugate to the kidney.

In a preferred embodiment, the lipid based ligand binds HSA. Preferably, it binds HSA with a sufficient affinity such that the conjugate will be preferably distributed to a non-kidney tissue. However, it is preferred that the affinity not be so strong that the HSA-ligand binding cannot be reversed.

In another preferred embodiment, the lipid based ligand binds HSA weakly or not at all, such that the conjugate will be preferably distributed to the kidney. Other moieties that target to kidney cells can also be used in place of or in addition to the lipid based ligand.

In another aspect, the ligand is a moiety, e.g., a vitamin, which is taken up by a target cell, e.g., a proliferating cell. These are particularly useful for treating disorders characterized by unwanted cell proliferation, e.g., of the malignant or non-malignant type, e.g., cancer cells. Exemplary vitamins include vitamin A, E, and K. Other exemplary vitamins include are B vitamin, e.g., folic acid, B12, riboflavin, biotin, pyridoxal or other vitamins or nutrients taken up by cancer cells. Also included are HSA and low density lipoprotein (LDL).

In another aspect, the ligand is a cell-permeation agent, preferably a helical cell-permeation agent. Preferably, the agent is amphipathic. An exemplary agent is a peptide such as tat or antennopedia. If the agent is a peptide, it can be modified, including a peptidylmimetic, invertomers, non-peptide or pseudo-peptide linkages, and use of D-amino acids. The helical agent is preferably an alpha-helical agent, which preferably has a lipophilic and a lipophobic phase.

The ligand can be a peptide or peptidomimetic. A peptidomimetic (also referred to herein as an oligopeptidomimetic) is a molecule capable of folding into a defined three-dimensional structure similar to a natural peptide. The attachment of peptide and peptidomimetics to iRNA agents can affect pharmacokinetic distribution of the iRNA, such as by enhancing cellular recognition and absorption. The peptide or peptidomimetic moiety can be about 5-50 amino acids long, e.g., about 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, or 50 amino acids long (see Table 1, for example).

A peptide or peptidomimetic can be, for example, a cell permeation peptide, cationic peptide, amphipathic peptide, or hydrophobic peptide (e.g., consisting primarily of Tyr, Trp or Phe). The peptide moiety can be a dendrimer peptide, constrained peptide or crosslinked peptide. In another alternative, the peptide moiety can include a hydrophobic membrane translocation sequence (MTS). An exemplary hydrophobic MTS-containing peptide is RFGF having the amino acid sequence AAVALLPAVLLALLAP (SEQ ID NO:6751). An RFGF analogue (e.g., amino acid sequence AALLPVLLAAP (SEQ ID NO:6752)) containing a hydrophobic MTS can also be a targeting moiety. The peptide moiety can be a “delivery” peptide, which can carry large polar molecules including peptides, oligonucleotides, and protein across cell membranes. For example, sequences from the HIV Tat protein (GRKKRRQRRRPPQ (SEQ ID NO:6753)) and the Drosophila Antennapedia protein (RQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK (SEQ ID NO:6754)) have been found to be capable of functioning as delivery peptides. A peptide or peptidomimetic can be encoded by a random sequence of DNA, such as a peptide identified from a phage-display library, or one-bead-one-compound (OBOC) combinatorial library (Lam et al., Nature, 354:82-84, 1991). Preferably the peptide or peptidomimetic tethered to an iRNA agent via an incorporated monomer unit is a cell targeting peptide such as an arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD)-peptide, or RGD mimic. A peptide moiety can range in length from about 5 amino acids to about 40 amino acids. The peptide moieties can have a structural modification, such as to increase stability or direct conformational properties. Any of the structural modifications described below can be utilized.

An RGD peptide moiety can be used to target a tumor cell, such as an endothelial tumor cell or a breast cancer tumor cell (Zitzmann et al., Cancer Res., 62:5139-43, 2002). An RGD peptide can facilitate targeting of an iRNA agent to tumors of a variety of other tissues, including the lung, kidney, spleen, or liver (Aoki et al., Cancer Gene Therapy 8:783-787, 2001). The RGD peptide can be linear or cyclic, and can be modified, e.g., glycosylated or methylated to facilitate targeting to specific tissues. For example, a glycosylated RGD peptide can deliver an iRNA agent to a tumor cell expressing α_(v)ß₃ (Haubner et al., Jour. Nucl. Med., 42:326-336, 2001).

Peptides that target markers enriched in proliferating cells can be used. E.g., RGD containing peptides and peptidomimetics can target cancer cells, in particular cells that exhibit an I_(v)ϑ₃ integrin. Thus, one could use RGD peptides, cyclic peptides containing RGD, RGD peptides that include D-amino acids, as well as synthetic RGD mimics. In addition to RGD, one can use other moieties that target the I_(v)-ϑ₃ integrin ligand. Generally, such ligands can be used to control proliferating cells and angiogeneis. Preferred conjugates of this type include an iRNA agent that targets PECAM-1, VEGF, or other cancer gene, e.g., a cancer gene described herein.

A “cell permeation peptide” is capable of permeating a cell, e.g., a microbial cell, such as a bacterial or fungal cell, or a mammalian cell, such as a human cell. A microbial cell-permeating peptide can be, for example, an α-helical linear peptide (e.g., LL-37 or Ceropin P1), a disulfide bond-containing peptide (e.g., α-defensin, β-defensin or bactenecin), or a peptide containing only one or two dominating amino acids (e.g., PR-39 or indolicidin). A cell permeation peptide can also include a nuclear localization signal (NLS). For example, a cell permeation peptide can be a bipartite amphipathic peptide, such as MPG, which is derived from the fusion peptide domain of HIV-1 gp41 and the NLS of SV40 large T antigen (Simeoni et al., Nucl. Acids Res. 31:2717-2724, 2003).

In one embodiment, a targeting peptide tethered to an RRMS can be an amphipathic α-helical peptide. Exemplary amphipathic α-helical peptides include, but are not limited to, cecropins, lycotoxins, paradaxins, buforin, CPF, bombinin-like peptide (BLP), cathelicidins, ceratotoxins, S. clava peptides, hagfish intestinal antimicrobial peptides (HFIAPs), magainines, brevinins-2, dermaseptins, melittins, pleurocidin, H₂A peptides, Xenopus peptides, esculentinis-1, and caerins. A number of factors will preferably be considered to maintain the integrity of helix stability. For example, a maximum number of helix stabilization residues will be utilized (e.g., leu, ala, or lys), and a minimum number helix destabilization residues will be utilized (e.g., proline, or cyclic monomeric units. The capping residue will be considered (for example Gly is an exemplary N-capping residue and/or C-terminal amidation can be used to provide an extra H-bond to stabilize the helix. Formation of salt bridges between residues with opposite charges, separated by i±3, or i±4 positions can provide stability. For example, cationic residues such as lysine, arginine, homo-arginine, ornithine or histidine can form salt bridges with the anionic residues glutamate or aspartate.

Peptide and petidomimetic ligands include those having naturally occurring or modified peptides, e.g., D or L peptides; α, β, or γ peptides; N-methyl peptides; azapeptides; peptides having one or more amide, i.e., peptide, linkages replaced with one or more urea, thiourea, carbamate, or sulfonyl urea linkages; or cyclic peptides.

Methods for Making iRNA Agents

iRNA agents can include modified or non-naturally occurring bases, e.g., bases described in copending and coowned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/463,772 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-070P01), filed on Apr. 17, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference and/or in copending and coowned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/465,802 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-074P01), filed on Apr. 25, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Monomers and iRNA agents which include such bases can be made by the methods found in U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/463,772 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-070P01), filed on Apr. 17, 2003, and/or in U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/465,802 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-074P01), filed on Apr. 25, 2003.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having a modified or non-naturally occurring base and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates a modified or non-naturally occurring base.

The synthesis and purification of oligonucleotide peptide conjugates can be performed by established methods. See, for example, Trufert et al., Tetrahedron, 52:3005, 1996; and Manoharan, “Oligonucleotide Conjugates in Antisense Technology,” in Antisense Drug Technology, ed. S. T. Crooke, Marcel Dekker, Inc., 2001.

In one embodiment of the invention, a peptidomimetic can be modified to create a constrained peptide that adopts a distinct and specific preferred conformation, which can increase the potency and selectivity of the peptide. For example, the constrained peptide can be an azapeptide (Gante, Synthesis, 405-413, 1989). An azapeptide is synthesized by replacing the a-carbon of an amino acid with a nitrogen atom without changing the structure of the amino acid side chain. For example, the azapeptide can be synthesized by using hydrazine in traditional peptide synthesis coupling methods, such as by reacting hydrazine with a “carbonyl donor,” e.g., phenylchloroformate.

In one embodiment of the invention, a peptide or peptidomimetic (e.g., a peptide or peptidomimetic tethered to an RRMS) can be an N-methyl peptide. N-methyl peptides are composed of N-methyl amino acids, which provide an additional methyl group in the peptide backbone, thereby potentially providing additional means of resistance to proteolytic cleavage. N-methyl peptides can by synthesized by methods known in the art (see, for example, Lindgren et al., Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 21:99, 2000; Cell Penetrating Peptides: Processes and Applications, Langel, ed., CRC Press, Boca Raton, Fla., 2002; Fische et al., Bioconjugate. Chem. 12: 825, 2001; Wander et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 124:13382, 2002). For example, an Ant or Tat peptide can be an N-methyl peptide.

In one embodiment of the invention, a peptide or peptidomimetic (e.g., a peptide or peptidomimetic tethered to an RRMS) can be a β-peptide. β-peptides form stable secondary structures such as helices, pleated sheets, turns and hairpins in solutions. Their cyclic derivatives can fold into nanotubes in the solid state. β-peptides are resistant to degradation by proteolytic enzymes. β-peptides can be synthesized by methods known in the art. For example, an Ant or Tat peptide can be a β-peptide.

In one embodiment of the invention, a peptide or peptidomimetic (e.g., a peptide or peptidomimetic tethered to an RRMS) can be a oligocarbamate. Oligocarbamate peptides are internalized into a cell by a transport pathway facilitated by carbamate transporters. For example, an Ant or Tat peptide can be an oligocarbamate.

In one embodiment of the invention, a peptide or peptidomimetic (e.g., a peptide or peptidomimetic tethered to an RRMS) can be an oligourea conjugate (or an oligothiourea conjugate), in which the amide bond of a peptidomimetic is replaced with a urea moiety. Replacement of the amide bond provides increased resistance to degradation by proteolytic enzymes, e.g., proteolytic enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract. In one embodiment, an oligourea conjugate is tethered to an iRNA agent for use in oral delivery. The backbone in each repeating unit of an oligourea peptidomimetic can be extended by one carbon atom in comparison with the natural amino acid. The single carbon atom extension can increase peptide stability and lipophilicity, for example. An oligourea peptide can therefore be advantageous when an iRNA agent is directed for passage through a bacterial cell wall, or when an iRNA agent must traverse the blood-brain barrier, such as for the treatment of a neurological disorder. In one embodiment, a hydrogen bonding unit is conjugated to the oligourea peptide, such as to create an increased affinity with a receptor. For example, an Ant or Tat peptide can be an oligourea conjugate (or an oligothiourea conjugate).

The siRNA peptide conjugates of the invention can be affiliated with, e.g., tethered to, RRMSs occurring at various positions on an iRNA agent. For example, a peptide can be terminally conjugated, on either the sense or the antisense strand, or a peptide can be bisconjugated (one peptide tethered to each end, one conjugated to the sense strand, and one conjugated to the antisense strand). In another option, the peptide can be internally conjugated, such as in the loop of a short hairpin iRNA agent. In yet another option, the peptide can be affiliated with a complex, such as a peptide-carrier complex.

A peptide-carrier complex consists of at least a carrier molecule, which can encapsulate one or more iRNA agents (such as for delivery to a biological system and/or a cell), and a peptide moiety tethered to the outside of the carrier molecule, such as for targeting the carrier complex to a particular tissue or cell type. A carrier complex can carry additional targeting molecules on the exterior of the complex, or fusogenic agents to aid in cell delivery. The one or more iRNA agents encapsulated within the carrier can be conjugated to lipophilic molecules, which can aid in the delivery of the agents to the interior of the carrier.

A carrier molecule or structure can be, for example, a micelle, a liposome (e.g., a cationic liposome), a nanoparticle, a microsphere, or a biodegradable polymer. A peptide moiety can be tethered to the carrier molecule by a variety of linkages, such as a disulfide linkage, an acid labile linkage, a peptide-based linkage, an oxyamino linkage or a hydrazine linkage. For example, a peptide-based linkage can be a GFLG peptide. Certain linkages will have particular advantages, and the advantages (or disadvantages) can be considered depending on the tissue target or intended use. For example, peptide based linkages are stable in the blood stream but are susceptible to enzymatic cleavage in the lysosomes.

Targeting

The iRNA agents of the invention are particularly useful when targeted to the liver. An iRNA agent can be targeted to the liver by incorporation of an RRMS containing a ligand that targets the liver. For example, a liver-targeting agent can be a lipophilic moiety. Preferred lipophilic moieties include lipid, cholesterols, oleyl, retinyl, or cholesteryl residues. Other lipophilic moieties that can function as liver-targeting agents include cholic acid, adamantane acetic acid, 1-pyrene butyric acid, dihydrotestosterone, 1,3-Bis-O(hexadecyl)glycerol, geranyloxyhexyl group, hexadecylglycerol, borneol, menthol, 1,3-propanediol, heptadecyl group, palmitic acid, myristic acid, O3-(oleoyl)lithocholic acid, O3-(oleoyl)cholenic acid, dimethoxytrityl, or phenoxazine.

An iRNA agent can also be targeted to the liver by association with a low-density lipoprotein (LDL), such as lactosylated LDL. Polymeric carriers complexed with sugar residues can also function to target iRNA agents to the liver.

A targeting agent that incorporates a sugar, e.g., galactose and/or analogues thereof, is particularly useful. These agents target, in particular, the parenchymal cells of the liver. For example, a targeting moiety can include more than one or preferably two or three galactose moieties, spaced about 15 angstroms from each other. The targeting moiety can alternatively be lactose (e.g., three lactose moieties), which is glucose coupled to a galactose. The targeting moiety can also be N-Acetyl-Galactosamine, N—Ac-Glucosamine. A mannose or mannose-6-phosphate targeting moiety can be used for macrophage targeting.

Conjugation of an iRNA agent with a serum albumin (SA), such as human serum albumin, can also be used to target the iRNA agent to the liver.

An iRNA agent targeted to the liver by an RRMS targeting moiety described herein can target a gene expressed in the liver. For example, the iRNA agent can target p21(WAF1/DIP1), P27(KIP1), the a-fetoprotein gene, beta-catenin, or c-MET, such as for treating a cancer of the liver. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent can target apoB-100, such as for the treatment of an HDL/LDL cholesterol imbalance; dyslipidemias, e.g., familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL), or acquired hyperlipidemia; hypercholesterolemia; statin-resistant hypercholesterolemia; coronary artery disease (CAD); coronary heart disease (CHD); or atherosclerosis. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent can target forkhead homologue in rhabdomyosarcoma (FKHR); glucagon; glucagon receptor; glycogen phosphorylase; PPAR-Gamma Coactivator (PGC-1); Fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase; glucose-6-phosphatase; glucose-6-phosphate translocator; glucokinase inhibitory regulatory protein; or phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), such as to inhibit hepatic glucose production in a mammal, such as a human, such as for the treatment of diabetes. In another embodiment, an iRNA agent targeted to the liver can target Factor V, e.g., the Leiden Factor V allele, such as to reduce the tendency to form a blood clot. An iRNA agent targeted to the liver can include a sequence which targets hepatitis virus (e.g., Hepatitis A, B, C, D, E, F, G, or H). For example, an iRNA agent of the invention can target any one of the nonstructural proteins of HCV: NS3, 4A, 4B, 5A, or 5B. For the treatment of hepatitis B, an iRNA agent can target the protein X (HBx) gene, for example.

Preferred ligands on RRMSs include folic acid, glucose, cholesterol, cholic acid, Vitamin E, Vitamin K, or Vitamin A.

In one aspect, the invention features an iRNA agent which can be asymmetrically modified as described herein.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having asymmetrical modifications and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates an asymmetrical modification.

iRNA agents of the invention can be asymmetrically modified. An asymmetrically modified iRNA agent is one in which a strand has a modification which is not present on the other strand. An asymmetrical modification is a modification found on one strand but not on the other strand. Any modification, e.g., any modification described herein, can be present as an asymmetrical modification. An asymmetrical modification can confer any of the desired properties associated with a modification, e.g., those properties discussed herein. E.g., an asymmetrical modification can: confer resistance to degradation, an alteration in half life; target the iRNA agent to a particular target, e.g., to a particular tissue; modulate, e.g., increase or decrease, the affinity of a strand for its complement or target sequence; or hinder or promote modification of a terminal moiety, e.g., modification by a kinase or other enzymes involved in the RISC mechanism pathway. The designation of a modification as having one property does not mean that it has no other property, e.g., a modification referred to as one which promotes stabilization might also enhance targeting.

While not wishing to be bound by theory or any particular mechanistic model, it is believed that asymmetrical modification allows an iRNA agent to be optimized in view of the different or “asymmetrical” functions of the sense and antisense strands. For example, both strands can be modified to increase nuclease resistance, however, since some changes can inhibit RISC activity, these changes can be chosen for the sense stand. In addition, since some modifications, e.g., targeting moieties, can add large bulky groups that, e.g., can interfere with the cleavage activity of the RISC complex, such modifications are preferably placed on the sense strand. Thus, targeting moieties, especially bulky ones (e.g. cholesterol), are preferentially added to the sense strand. In one embodiment, an asymmetrical modification in which a phosphate of the backbone is substituted with S, e.g., a phosphorothioate modification, is present in the antisense strand, and a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′ OMe is present in the sense strand. A targeting moiety can be present at either (or both) the 5′ or 3′ end of the sense strand of the iRNA agent. In a preferred example, a P of the backbone is replaced with S in the antisense strand, 2′OMe is present in the sense strand, and a targeting moiety is added to either the 5′ or 3′ end of the sense strand of the iRNA agent.

In a preferred embodiment an asymmetrically modified iRNA agent has a modification on the sense strand which modification is not found on the antisense strand and the antisense strand has a modification which is not found on the sense strand.

Each strand can include one or more asymmetrical modifications. By way of example: one strand can include a first asymmetrical modification which confers a first property on the iRNA agent and the other strand can have a second asymmetrical modification which confers a second property on the iRNA. E.g., one strand, e.g., the sense strand can have a modification which targets the iRNA agent to a tissue, and the other strand, e.g., the antisense strand, has a modification which promotes hybridization with the target gene sequence.

In some embodiments both strands can be modified to optimize the same property, e.g., to increase resistance to nucleolytic degradation, but different modifications are chosen for the sense and the antisense strands, e.g., because the modifications affect other properties as well. E.g., since some changes can affect RISC activity these modifications are chosen for the sense strand.

In an embodiment one strand has an asymmetrical 2′ modification, e.g., a 2′ OMe modification, and the other strand has an asymmetrical modification of the phosphate backbone, e.g., a phosphorothioate modification. So, in one embodiment the antisense strand has an asymmetrical 2′ OMe modification and the sense strand has an asymmetrical phosphorothioate modification (or vice versa). In a particularly preferred embodiment the RNAi agent will have asymmetrical 2′-O alkyl, preferably, 2′-OMe modifications on the sense strand and asymmetrical backbone P modification, preferably a phosphothioate modification in the antisense strand. There can be one or multiple 2′-OMe modifications, e.g., at least 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, of the subunits of the sense strand can be so modified. There can be one or multiple phosphorothioate modifications, e.g., at least 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, of the subunits of the antisense strand can be so modified. It is preferable to have an iRNA agent wherein there are multiple 2′-OMe modifications on the sense strand and multiple phophorothioate modifications on the antisense strand. All of the subunits on one or both strands can be so modified. A particularly preferred embodiment of multiple asymmetric modification on both strands has a duplex region about 20-21, and preferably 19, subunits in length and one or two 3′ overhangs of about 2 subunits in length.

Asymmetrical modifications are useful for promoting resistance to degradation by nucleases, e.g., endonucleases. iRNA agents can include one or more asymmetrical modifications which promote resistance to degradation. In preferred embodiments the modification on the antisense strand is one which will not interfere with silencing of the target, e.g., one which will not interfere with cleavage of the target. Most if not all sites on a strand are vulnerable, to some degree, to degradation by endonucleases. One can determine sites which are relatively vulnerable and insert asymmetrical modifications which inhibit degradation. It is often desirable to provide asymmetrical modification of a UA site in an iRNA agent, and in some cases it is desirable to provide the UA sequence on both strands with asymmetrical modification. Examples of modifications which inhibit endonucleolytic degradation can be found herein. Particularly favored modifications include: 2′ modification, e.g., provision of a 2′ OMe moiety on the U, especially on a sense strand; modification of the backbone, e.g., with the replacement of an O with an S, in the phosphate backbone, e.g., the provision of a phosphorothioate modification, on the U or the A or both, especially on an antisense strand; replacement of the U with a C5 amino linker; replacement of the A with a G (sequence changes are preferred to be located on the sense strand and not the antisense strand); and modification of the at the 2′, 6′, 7′, or 8′ position. Preferred embodiments are those in which one or more of these modifications are present on the sense but not the antisense strand, or embodiments where the antisense strand has fewer of such modifications.

Asymmetrical modification can be used to inhibit degradation by exonucleases. Asymmetrical modifications can include those in which only one strand is modified as well as those in which both are modified. In preferred embodiments the modification on the antisense strand is one which will not interfere with silencing of the target, e.g., one which will not interfere with cleavage of the target. Some embodiments will have an asymmetrical modification on the sense strand, e.g., in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus, and on the antisense strand, e.g., in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus. If the modifications introduce moieties of different size it is preferable that the larger be on the sense strand. If the modifications introduce moieties of different charge it is preferable that the one with greater charge be on the sense strand.

Examples of modifications which inhibit exonucleolytic degradation can be found herein. Particularly favored modifications include: 2′ modification, e.g., provision of a 2′ OMe moiety in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus (3′ terminus means at the 3′ atom of the molecule or at the most 3′ moiety, e.g., the most 3′ P or 2′ position, as indicated by the context); modification of the backbone, e.g., with the replacement of a P with an S, e.g., the provision of a phosphorothioate modification, or the use of a methylated P in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus; combination of a 2′ modification, e.g., provision of a 2′ O Me moiety and modification of the backbone, e.g., with the replacement of a P with an S, e.g., the provision of a phosphorothioate modification, or the use of a methylated P, in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus; modification with a 3′ alkyl; modification with an abasic pyrolidine in a 3′ overhang, e.g., at the 3′ terminus; modification with naproxene, ibuprofen, or other moieties which inhibit degradation at the 3′ terminus. Preferred embodiments are those in which one or more of these modifications are present on the sense but not the antisense strand, or embodiments where the antisense strand has fewer of such modifications.

Modifications, e.g., those described herein, which affect targeting can be provided as asymmetrical modifications. Targeting modifications which can inhibit silencing, e.g., by inhibiting cleavage of a target, can be provided as asymmetrical modifications of the sense strand. A biodistribution altering moiety, e.g., cholesterol, can be provided in one or more, e.g., two, asymmetrical modifications of the sense strand. Targeting modifications which introduce moieties having a relatively large molecular weight, e.g., a molecular weight of more than 400, 500, or 1000 daltons, or which introduce a charged moiety (e.g., having more than one positive charge or one negative charge) can be placed on the sense strand.

Modifications, e.g., those described herein, which modulate, e.g., increase or decrease, the affinity of a strand for its compliment or target, can be provided as asymmetrical modifications. These include: 5 methyl U; 5 methyl C; pseudouridine, Locked nucleic acids, 2 thio U and 2-amino-A. In some embodiments one or more of these is provided on the antisense strand.

iRNA agents have a defined structure, with a sense strand and an antisense strand, and in many cases short single strand overhangs, e.g., of 2 or 3 nucleotides are present at one or both 3′ ends. Asymmetrical modification can be used to optimize the activity of such a structure, e.g., by being placed selectively within the iRNA. E.g., the end region of the iRNA agent defined by the 5′ end of the sense strand and the 3′ end of the antisense strand is important for function. This region can include the terminal 2, 3, or 4 paired nucleotides and any 3′ overhang. In preferred embodiments asymmetrical modifications which result in one or more of the following are used: modifications of the 5′ end of the sense strand which inhibit kinase activation of the sense strand, including, e.g., attachments of conjugates which target the molecule or the use modifications which protect against 5′ exonucleolytic degradation; or modifications of either strand, but preferably the sense strand, which enhance binding between the sense and antisense strand and thereby promote a “tight” structure at this end of the molecule.

The end region of the iRNA agent defined by the 3′ end of the sense strand and the 5′end of the antisense strand is also important for function. This region can include the terminal 2, 3, or 4 paired nucleotides and any 3′ overhang. Preferred embodiments include asymmetrical modifications of either strand, but preferably the sense strand, which decrease binding between the sense and antisense strand and thereby promote an “open” structure at this end of the molecule. Such modifications include placing conjugates which target the molecule or modifications which promote nuclease resistance on the sense strand in this region. Modification of the antisense strand which inhibit kinase activation are avoided in preferred embodiments.

Exemplary modifications for asymmetrical placement in the sense strand include the following:

(a) backbone modifications, e.g., modification of a backbone P, including replacement of P with S, or P substituted with alkyl or allyl, e.g., Me, and dithioates (S-P=S); these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance;

(b) 2′-O alkyl, e.g., 2′-OMe, 3′-O alkyl, e.g., 3′-OMe (at terminal and/or internal positions); these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to enhance binding of the sense to the antisense strand, the 3′ modifications can be used at the 5′ end of the sense strand to avoid sense strand activation by RISC;

(c) 2′-5′ linkages (with 2′-H, 2′-OH and 2′-OMe and with P=O or P=S) these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to inhibit binding of the sense to the antisense strand, or can be used at the 5′ end of the sense strand to avoid sense strand activation by RISC;

(d) L sugars (e.g., L ribose, L-arabinose with 2′-H, 2′-OH and 2′-OMe); these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to inhibit binding of the sense to the antisense strand, or can be used at the 5′ end of the sense strand to avoid sense strand activation by RISC;

(e) modified sugars (e.g., locked nucleic acids (LNA's), hexose nucleic acids (HNA's) and cyclohexene nucleic acids (CeNA's)); these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to inhibit binding of the sense to the antisense strand, or can be used at the 5′ end of the sense strand to avoid sense strand activation by RISC;

(f) nucleobase modifications (e.g., C-5 modified pyrimidines, N-2 modified purines, N-7 modified purines, N-6 modified purines), these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to enhance binding of the sense to the antisense strand;

(g) cationic groups and Zwitterionic groups (preferably at a terminus), these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance;

(h) conjugate groups (preferably at terminal positions), e,g., naproxen, biotin, cholesterol, ibuprofen, folic acid, peptides, and carbohydrates; these modifications can be used to promote nuclease resistance or to target the molecule, or can be used at the 5′ end of the sense strand to avoid sense strand activation by RISC.

Exemplary modifications for asymmetrical placement in the antisense strand include the following:

(a) backbone modifications, e.g., modification of a backbone P, including replacement of P with S, or P substituted with alkyl or allyl, e.g., Me, and dithioates (S-P=S);

(b) 2′-O alkyl, e.g., 2′-OMe, (at terminal positions);

(c) 2′-5′ linkages (with 2′-H, 2′-OH and 2′-OMe) e.g., terminal at the 3′ end); e.g., with P=O or P=S preferably at the 3′-end, these modifications are preferably excluded from the 5′ end region as they may interfere with RISC enzyme activity such as kinase activity;

(d) L sugars (e.g, L ribose, L-arabinose with 2′-H, 2′-OH and 2′-OMe); e.g., terminal at the 3′ end; e.g., with P=O or P=S preferably at the 3′-end, these modifications are preferably excluded from the 5′ end region as they may interfere with kinase activity;

(e) modified sugars (e.g., LNA's, HNA's and CeNA's); these modifications are preferably excluded from the 5′ end region as they may contribute to unwanted enhancements of paring between the sense and antisense strands, it is often preferred to have a “loose” structure in the 5′ region, additionally, they may interfere with kinase activity;

(f) nucleobase modifications (e.g., C-5 modified pyrimidines, N-2 modified purines, N-7 modified purines, N-6 modified purines);

(g) cationic groups and Zwitterionic groups (preferably at a terminus);

conjugate groups (preferably at terminal positions), e,g., naproxen, biotin, cholesterol, ibuprofen, folic acid, peptides, and carbohydrates, but bulky groups or generally groups which inhibit RISC activity should are less preferred.

The 5′-OH of the antisense strand should be kept free to promote activity. In some preferred embodiments modifications that promote nuclease resistance should be included at the 3′ end, particularly in the 3′ overhang.

In another aspect, the invention features a method of optimizing, e.g., stabilizing, an iRNA agent. The method includes selecting a sequence having activity, introducing one or more asymmetric modifications into the sequence, wherein the introduction of the asymmetric modification optimizes a property of the iRNA agent but does not result in a decrease in activity.

The decrease in activity can be less than a preselected level of decrease. In preferred embodiments decrease in activity means a decrease of less than 5, 10, 20, 40, or 50% activity, as compared with an otherwise similar iRNA lacking the introduced modification. Activity can, e.g., be measured in vivo, or in vitro, with a result in either being sufficient to demonstrate the required maintenance of activity.

The optimized property can be any property described herein and in particular the properties discussed in the section on asymmetrical modifications provided herein. The modification can be any asymmetrical modification, e.g., an asymmetric modification described in the section on asymmetrical modifications described herein. Particularly preferred asymmetric modifications are 2′-O alkyl modifications, e.g., 2′-OMe modifications, particularly in the sense sequence, and modifications of a backbone O, particularly phosphorothioate modifications, in the antisense sequence.

In a preferred embodiment a sense sequence is selected and provided with an asymmetrical modification, while in other embodiments an antisense sequence is selected and provided with an asymmetrical modification. In some embodiments both sense and antisense sequences are selected and each provided with one or more asymmetrical modifications.

Multiple asymmetric modifications can be introduced into either or both of the sense and antisense sequence. A sequence can have at least 2, 4, 6, 8, or more modifications and all or substantially all of the monomers of a sequence can be modified.

Z-X-Y Architecture

In one aspect, the invention features an iRNA agent which can have a Z-X-Y architecture or structure such as those described herein and those described in copending, co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/510,246 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-079P02), filed on Oct. 9, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference, and in copending, co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/510,318 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-079P03), filed on Oct. 10, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having a Z-X-Y structure and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates a Z-X-Y architecture.

The invention provides an iRNA agent having a first segment, the Z region, a second segment, the X region, and optionally a third region, the Y region:

-   -   Z-X-Y.

It may be desirable to modify subunits in one or both of Z and/or Y on one hand and X on the other hand. In some cases they will have the same modification or the same class of modification but it will more often be the case that the modifications made in Z and/or Y will differ from those made in X.

The Z region typically includes a terminus of an iRNA agent. The length of the Z region can vary, but will typically be from 2-14, more preferably 2-10, subunits in length. It typically is single stranded, i.e., it will not base pair with bases of another strand, though it may in some embodiments self associate, e.g., to form a loop structure. Such structures can be formed by the end of a strand looping back and forming an intrastrand duplex. E.g., 2, 3, 4, 5 or more intra-strand bases pairs can form, having a looped out or connecting region, typically of 2 or more subunits which do not pair. This can occur at one or both ends of a strand. A typical embodiment of a Z region is a single strand overhang, e.g., an over hang of the length described elsewhere herein. The Z region can thus be or include a 3′ or 5′ terminal single strand. It can be sense or antisense strand but if it is antisense it is preferred that it is a 3-overhang. Typical inter-subunit bonds in the Z region include: P=O; P=S; S-P=S; P—NR₂; and P-BR₂. Chiral P=X, where X is S, N, or B) inter-subunit bonds can also be present. (These inter-subunit bonds are discussed in more detail elsewhere herein.) Other preferred Z region subunit modifications (also discussed elsewhere herein) can include: 3′-OR, 3′ SR, 2′-OMe, 3′-OMe, and 2′OH modifications and moieties; alpha configuration bases; and 2′ arabino modifications.

The X region will in most cases be duplexed, in the case of a single strand iRNA agent, with a corresponding region of the single strand, or in the case of a double stranded iRNA agent, with the corresponding region of the other strand. The length of the X region can vary but will typically be between 10-45 and more preferably between 15 and 35 subunits. Particularly preferred region X's will include 17, 18, 19, 29, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 nucleotide pairs, though other suitable lengths are described elsewhere herein and can be used. Typical X region subunits include 2′-OH subunits. In typical embodiments phosphate inter-subunit bonds are preferred while phophorothioate or non-phosphate bonds are absent. Other modifications preferred in the X region include: modifications to improve binding, e.g., nucleobase modifications; cationic nucleobase modifications; and C-5 modified pyrimidines, e.g., allylamines. Some embodiments have 4 or more consecutive 2′OH subunits. While the use of phosphorothioate is sometimes non preferred they can be used if they connect less than 4 consecutive 2′OH subunits.

The Y region will generally conform to the the parameters set out for the Z regions. However, the X and Z regions need not be the same, different types and numbers of modifications can be present, and infact, one will usually be a 3′ overhang and one will usually be a 5′ overhang.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will have a Y and/or Z region each having ribonucleosides in which the 2′-OH is substituted, e.g., with 2′-OMe or other alkyl; and an X region that includes at least four consecutive ribonucleoside subunits in which the 2′-OH remains unsubstituted.

The subunit linkages (the linkages between subunits) of an iRNA agent can be modified, e.g., to promote resistance to degradation. Numerous examples of such modifications are disclosed herein, one example of which is the phosphorothioate linkage. These modifications can be provided between the subunits of any of the regions, Y, X, and Z. However, it is preferred that their occurrences minimized and in particular it is preferred that consecutive modified linkages be avoided.

In a preferred embodiment the iRNA agent will have a Y and Z region each having ribonucleosides in which the 2′-OH is substituted, e.g., with 2′-OMe; and an X region that includes at least four consecutive subunits, e.g., ribonucleoside subunits in which the 2′-OH remains unsubstituted.

As mentioned above, the subunit linkages of an iRNA agent can be modified, e.g., to promote resistance to degradation. These modifications can be provided between the subunits of any of the regions, Y, X, and Z. However, it is preferred that they are minimized and in particular it is preferred that consecutive modified linkages be avoided.

Thus, in a preferred embodiment, not all of the subunit linkages of the iRNA agent are modified and more preferably the maximum number of consecutive subunits linked by other than a phospodiester bond will be 2, 3, or 4. Particulary preferred iRNA agents will not have four or more consecutive subunits, e.g., 2′-hydroxyl ribonucleoside subunits, in which each subunits is joined by modified linkages—i.e. linkages that have been modified to stabilize them from degradation as compared to the phosphodiester linkages that naturally occur in RNA and DNA.

It is particularly preferred to minimize the occurrence in region X. Thus, in preferred embodiments each of the nucleoside subunit linkages in X will be phosphodiester linkages, or if subunit linkages in region X are modified, such modifications will be minimized. E.g., although the Y and/or Z regions can include inter subunit linkages which have been stabilized against degradation, such modifications will be minimized in the X region, and in particular consecutive modifications will be minimized. Thus, in preferred embodiments the maximum number of consecutive subunits linked by other than a phospodiester bond will be 2, 3, or 4. Particulary preferred X regions will not have four or more consecutive subunits, e.g., 2′-hydroxyl ribonucleoside subunits, in which each subunits is joined by modified linkages—i.e. linkages that have been modified to stabilize them from degradation as compared to the phosphodiester linkages that naturally occur in RNA and DNA.

In a preferred embodiment Y and/or Z will be free of phosphorothioate linkages, though either or both may contain other modifications, e.g., other modifications of the subunit linkages.

In a preferred embodiment region X, or in some cases, the entire iRNA agent, has no more than 3 or no more than 4 subunits having identical 2′ moieties.

In a preferred embodiment region X, or in some cases, the entire iRNA agent, has no more than 3 or no more than 4 subunits having identical subunit linkages.

In a preferred embodiment one or more phosphorothioate linkages (or other modifications of the subunit linkage) are present in Y and/or Z, but such modified linkages do not connect two adjacent subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., a 2′-O-alkyl moiety. E.g., any adjacent 2′-O-alkyl moieties in the Y and/or Z, are connected by a linkage other than a a phosphorothioate linkage.

In a preferred embodiment each of Y and/or Z independently has only one phosphorothioate linkage between adjacent subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′-O-alkyl nucleosides. If there is a second set of adjacent subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′-O-alkyl nucleosides, in Y and/or Z that second set is connected by a linkage other than a phosphorothioate linkage, e.g., a modified linkage other than a phosphorothioate linkage.

In a preferred embodiment each of Y and/or Z independently has more than one phosphorothioate linkage connecting adjacent pairs of subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′-O-alkyl nucleosides, but at least one pair of adjacent subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′-O-alkyl nucleosides, are be connected by a linkage other than a phosphorothioate linkage, e.g., a modified linkage other than a phosphorothioate linkage.

In a preferred embodiment one of the above recited limitation on adjacent subunits in Y and or Z is combined with a limitation on the subunits in X. E.g., one or more phosphorothioate linkages (or other modifications of the subunit linkage) are present in Y and/or Z, but such modified linkages do not connect two adjacent subunits, e.g., nucleosides, having a 2′ modification, e.g., a 2′-O-alkyl moiety. E.g., any adjacent 2′-O-alkyl moieties in the Y and/or Z, are connected by a linkage other than a a phosporothioate linkage. In addition, the X region has no more than 3 or no more than 4 identical subunits, e.g., subunits having identical 2′ moieties or the X region has no more than 3 or no more than 4 subunits having identical subunit linkages.

A Y and/or Z region can include at least one, and preferably 2, 3 or 4 of a modification disclosed herein. Such modifications can be chosen, independently, from any modification described herein, e.g., from nuclease resistant subunits, subunits with modified bases, subunits with modified intersubunit linkages, subunits with modified sugars, and subunits linked to another moiety, e.g., a targeting moiety. In a preferred embodiment more than 1 of such subunits can be present but in some embodiments it is preferred that no more than 1, 2, 3, or 4 of such modifications occur, or occur consecutively. In a preferred embodiment the frequency of the modification will differ between Y and/or Z and X, e.g., the modification will be present one of Y and/or Z or X and absent in the other.

An X region can include at least one, and preferably 2, 3 or 4 of a modification disclosed herein. Such modifications can be chosen, independently, from any modification described herein, e.g., from nuclease resistant subunits, subunits with modified bases, subunits with modified intersubunit linkages, subunits with modified sugars, and subunits linked to another moiety, e.g., a targeting moiety. In a preferred embodiment more than 1 of such subunits can b present but in some embodiments it is preferred that no more than 1, 2, 3, or 4 of such modifications occur, or occur consecutively.

An RRMS (described elsewhere herein) can be introduced at one or more points in one or both strands of a double-stranded iRNA agent. An RRMS can be placed in a Y and/or Z region, at or near (within 1, 2, or 3 positions) of the 3′ or 5′ end of the sense strand or at near (within 2 or 3 positions of) the 3′ end of the antisense strand. In some embodiments it is preferred to not have an RRMS at or near (within 1, 2, or 3 positions of) the 5′ end of the antisense strand. An RRMS can be positioned in the X region, and will preferably be positioned in the sense strand or in an area of the antisense strand not critical for antisense binding to the target.

Differential Modification of Terminal Duplex Stability

In one aspect, the invention features an iRNA agent which can have differential modification of terminal duplex stability (DMTDS).

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents having DMTDS and another element described herein. E.g., the invention includes an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA associated with an amphipathic delivery agent described herein, an iRNA associated with a drug delivery module described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, which also incorporates DMTDS.

iRNA agents can be optimized by increasing the propensity of the duplex to disassociate or melt (decreasing the free energy of duplex association), in the region of the 5′ end of the antisense strand duplex. This can be accomplished, e.g., by the inclusion of subunits which increase the propensity of the duplex to disassociate or melt in the region of the 5′ end of the antisense strand. It can also be accomplished by the attachment of a ligand that increases the propensity of the duplex to disassociate of melt in the region of the 5′ end. While not wishing to be bound by theory, the effect may be due to promoting the effect of an enzyme such as helicase, for example, promoting the effect of the enzyme in the proximity of the 5′ end of the antisense strand.

The inventors have also discovered that iRNA agents can be optimized by decreasing the propensity of the duplex to disassociate or melt (increasing the free energy of duplex association), in the region of the 3′ end of the antisense strand duplex. This can be accomplished, e.g., by the inclusion of subunits which decrease the propensity of the duplex to disassociate or melt in the region of the 3′ end of the antisense strand. It can also be accomplished by the attachment of ligand that decreases the propensity of the duplex to disassociate of melt in the region of the 5′end.

Modifications which increase the tendency of the 5′ end of the duplex to dissociate can be used alone or in combination with other modifications described herein, e.g., with modifications which decrease the tendency of the 3′ end of the duplex to dissociate. Likewise, modifications which decrease the tendency of the 3′ end of the duplex to dissociate can be used alone or in combination with other modifications described herein, e.g., with modifications which increase the tendency of the 5′ end of the duplex to dissociate.

Decreasing the Stability of the AS 5′ End of the Duplex

Subunit pairs can be ranked on the basis of their propensity to promote dissociation or melting (e.g., on the free energy of association or dissociation of a particular pairing, the simplest approach is to examine the pairs on an individual pair basis, though next neighbor or similar analysis can also be used). In terms of promoting dissociation:

A:U is preferred over G:C;

G:U is preferred over G:C;

I:C is preferred over G:C (I=inosine);

mismatches, e.g., non-canonical or other than canonical pairings (as described elsewhere herein) are preferred over canonical (A:T, A:U, G:C) pairings;

pairings which include a universal base are preferred over canonical pairings.

A typical ds iRNA agent can be diagrammed as follows:

S 5′ R₁ N₁ N₂ N₃ N₄ N₅ [N] N₋₅ N₋₄ N₋₃ N₋₂ N₋₁ R₂ 3′ AS 3′ R₃ N₁ N₂ N₃ N₄ N₅ [N] N₋₅ N₋₄ N₋₃ N₋₂ N₋₁ R₄ 5′ S:AS P₁ P₂ P₃ P₄ P₅ [N] P₋₅ P₋₄ P₋₃ P₋₂ P₋₁ 5′

S indicates the sense strand; AS indicates antisense strand; R₁ indicates an optional (and nonpreferred) 5′ sense strand overhang; R₂ indicates an optional (though preferred) 3′ sense overhang; R₃ indicates an optional (though preferred) 3′ antisense sense overhang; R₄ indicates an optional (and nonpreferred) 5′ antisense overhang; N indicates subunits; [N] indicates that additional subunit pairs may be present; and P_(x), indicates a paring of sense N_(x) and antisense Overhangs are not shown in the P diagram. In some embodiments a 3′ AS overhang corresponds to region Z, the duplex region corresponds to region X, and the 3'S strand overhang corresponds to region Y, as described elsewhere herein. (The diagram is not meant to imply maximum or minimum lengths, on which guidance is provided elsewhere herein.)

It is preferred that pairings which decrease the propensity to form a duplex are used at 1 or more of the positions in the duplex at the 5′ end of the AS strand. The terminal pair (the most 5′ pair in terms of the AS strand) is designated as P⁻¹, and the subsequent pairing positions (going in the 3′ direction in terms of the AS strand) in the duplex are designated, P⁻², P⁻³, P⁻⁴, P⁻⁵, and so on. The preferred region in which to modify to modulate duplex formation is at P⁻⁵ through P⁻¹, more preferably P⁻⁴ through P⁻¹, more preferably P⁻³ through P⁻¹. Modification at P⁻¹, is particularly preferred, alone or with modification(s) other position(s), e.g., any of the positions just identified. It is preferred that at least 1, and more preferably 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the pairs of one of the recited regions be chosen independently from the group of:

A:U

G:U

I:C

mismatched pairs, e.g., non-canonical or other than canonical pairings or pairings which include a universal base.

In preferred embodiments the change in subunit needed to achieve a pairing which promotes dissociation will be made in the sense strand, though in some embodiments the change will be made in the antisense strand.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are pairs which promote disociation.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are A:U.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are G:U.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are I:C.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are mismatched pairs, e.g., non-canonical or other than canonical pairings pairings.

In a preferred embodiment the at least 2, or 3, of the pairs in P⁻¹, through P⁻⁴, are pairings which include a universal base.

Increasing the Stability of the AS 3′ End of the Duplex

Subunit pairs can be ranked on the basis of their propensity to promote stability and inhibit dissociation or melting (e.g., on the free energy of association or dissociation of a particular pairing, the simplest approach is to examine the pairs on an individual pair basis, though next neighbor or similar analysis can also be used). In terms of promoting duplex stability:

G:C is preferred over A:U

G-clamp (an analog of C having 4 hydrogen bonds):G is preferred over C:G

guanadinium-G-clamp:G is preferred over C:G

psuedo uridine:A is preferred over U:A

sugar modifications, e.g., 2′ modifications, e.g., 2′F, ENA, or LNA, which enhance binding are preferred over non-modified moieties and can be present on one or both strands to enhance stability of the duplex. It is preferred that pairings which increase the propensity to form a duplex are used at 1 or more of the positions in the duplex at the 3′ end of the AS strand. The terminal pair (the most 3′ pair in terms of the AS strand) is designated as P₁, and the subsequent pairing positions (going in the 5′ direction in terms of the AS strand) in the duplex are designated, P₂, P₃, P₄, P₅, and so on. The preferred region in which to modify to modulate duplex formation is at P₅ through P₁, more preferably P₄ through P₁, more preferably P₃ through P₁. Modification at P₁, is particularly preferred, alone or with modification(s) at other position(s), e.g., any of the positions just identified. It is preferred that at least 1, and more preferably 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the pairs of the recited regions be chosen independently from the group of:

Simultaneously Decreasing the Stability of the AS 5′End of the Duplex and Increasing the Stability of the AS 3′ End of the Duplex

As is discussed above, an iRNA agent can be modified to both decrease the stability of the AS 5′end of the duplex and increase the stability of the AS 3′ end of the duplex. This can be effected by combining one or more of the stability decreasing modifications in the AS 5′ end of the duplex with one or more of the stability increasing modifications in the AS 3′ end of the duplex. Accordingly a preferred embodiment includes modification in P⁻⁵ through P⁻¹, more preferably P⁻⁴ through P⁻¹ and more preferably P⁻³ through P⁻¹. Modification at P⁻¹, is particularly preferred, alone or with other position, e.g., the positions just identified. It is preferred that at least 1, and more preferably 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the pairs of one of the recited regions of the AS 5′ end of the duplex region be chosen independently from the group of:

A:U

G:U

I:C

mismatched pairs, e.g., non-canonical or other than canonical pairings which include a universal base; and

a modification in P₅ through P₁, more preferably P₄ through P₁ and more preferably P₃ through P₁. Modification at P₁, is particularly preferred, alone or with other position, e.g., the positions just identified. It is preferred that at least 1, and more preferably 2, 3, 4, or 5 of the pairs of one of the recited regions of the AS 3′ end of the duplex region be chosen independently from the group of:

G:C

a pair having an analog that increases stability over Watson-Crick matches (A:T, A:U, G:C)

2-amino-A:U

G-clamp (an analog of C having 4 hydrogen bonds):G

guanadinium-G-clamp:G

psuedo uridine:A

a pair in which one or both subunits has a sugar modification, e.g., a 2′ modification, e.g., 2′F, ENA, or LNA, which enhance binding.

The invention also includes methods of selecting and making iRNA agents having DMTDS. E.g., when screening a target sequence for candidate sequences for use as iRNA agents one can select sequences having a DMTDS property described herein or one which can be modified, preferably with as few changes as possible, especially to the

AS strand, to provide a desired level of DMTDS.

The invention also includes, providing a candidate iRNA agent sequence, and modifying at least one P in P⁻⁵ through P⁻¹ and/or at least one P in P₅ through P₁ to provide a DMTDS iRNA agent.

DMTDS iRNA agents can be used in any method described herein, e.g., to silence any gene disclosed herein, to treat any disorder described herein, in any formulation described herein, and generally in and/or with the methods and compositions described elsewhere herein. DMTDS iRNA agents can incorporate other modifications described herein, e.g., the attachment of targeting agents or the inclusion of modifications which enhance stability, e.g., the inclusion of nuclease resistant monomers or the inclusion of single strand overhangs (e.g., 3′ AS overhangs and/or 3'S strand overhangs) which self associate to form intrastrand duplex structure.

Preferably these iRNA agents will have an architecture described herein.

OTHER EMBODIMENTS

In Vivo Delivery

An iRNA agent can be linked, e.g., noncovalently linked to a polymer for the efficient delivery of the iRNA agent to a subject, e.g., a mammal, such as a human. The iRNA agent can, for example, be complexed with cyclodextrin. Cyclodextrins have been used as delivery vehicles of therapeutic compounds. Cyclodextrins can form inclusion complexes with drugs that are able to fit into the hydrophobic cavity of the cyclodextrin. In other examples, cyclodextrins form non-covalent associations with other biologically active molecules such as oligonucleotides and derivatives thereof. The use of cyclodextrins creates a water-soluble drug delivery complex, that can be modified with targeting or other functional groups. Cyclodextrin cellular delivery system for oligonucleotides described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,691,316, which is hereby incorporated by reference, are suitable for use in methods of the invention. In this system, an oligonucleotide is noncovalently complexed with a cyclodextrin, or the oligonucleotide is covalently bound to adamantine which in turn is non-covalently associated with a cyclodextrin.

The delivery molecule can include a linear cyclodextrin copolymer or a linear oxidized cyclodextrin copolymer having at least one ligand bound to the cyclodextrin copolymer. Delivery systems, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,509,323, herein incorporated by reference, are suitable for use in methods of the invention. An iRNA agent can be bound to the linear cyclodextrin copolymer and/or a linear oxidized cyclodextrin copolymer. Either or both of the cyclodextrin or oxidized cyclodextrin copolymers can be crosslinked to another polymer and/or bound to a ligand.

A composition for iRNA delivery can employ an “inclusion complex,” a molecular compound having the characteristic structure of an adduct. In this structure, the “host molecule” spatially encloses at least part of another compound in the delivery vehicle. The enclosed compound (the “guest molecule”) is situated in the cavity of the host molecule without affecting the framework structure of the host. A “host” is preferably cyclodextrin, but can be any of the molecules suggested in U.S. Patent Publ. 2003/0008818, herein incorporated by reference.

Cyclodextrins can interact with a variety of ionic and molecular species, and the resulting inclusion compounds belong to the class of “host-guest” complexes. Within the host-guest relationship, the binding sites of the host and guest molecules should be complementary in the stereoelectronic sense. A composition of the invention can contain at least one polymer and at least one therapeutic agent, generally in the form of a particulate composite of the polymer and therapeutic agent, e.g., the iRNA agent. The iRNA agent can contain one or more complexing agents. At least one polymer of the particulate composite can interact with the complexing agent in a host-guest or a guest-host interaction to form an inclusion complex between the polymer and the complexing agent. The polymer and, more particularly, the complexing agent can be used to introduce functionality into the composition. For example, at least one polymer of the particulate composite has host functionality and forms an inclusion complex with a complexing agent having guest functionality. Alternatively, at least one polymer of the particulate composite has guest functionality and forms an inclusion complex with a complexing agent having host functionality. A polymer of the particulate composite can also contain both host and guest functionalities and form inclusion complexes with guest complexing agents and host complexing agents. A polymer with functionality can, for example, facilitate cell targeting and/or cell contact (e.g., targeting or contact to a liver cell), intercellular trafficking, and/or cell entry and release.

Upon forming the particulate composite, the iRNA agent may or may not retain its biological or therapeutic activity. Upon release from the therapeutic composition, specifically, from the polymer of the particulate composite, the activity of the iRNA agent is restored. Accordingly, the particulate composite advantageously affords the iRNA agent protection against loss of activity due to, for example, degradation and offers enhanced bioavailability. Thus, a composition may be used to provide stability, particularly storage or solution stability, to an iRNA agent or any active chemical compound. The iRNA agent may be further modified with a ligand prior to or after particulate composite or therapeutic composition formation. The ligand can provide further functionality. For example, the ligand can be a targeting moiety.

Physiological Effects

The iRNA agents described herein can be designed such that determining therapeutic toxicity is made easier by the complementarity of the iRNA agent with both a human and a non-human animal sequence. By these methods, an iRNA agent can consist of a sequence that is fully complementary to a nucleic acid sequence from a human and a nucleic acid sequence from at least one non-human animal, e.g., a non-human mammal, such as a rodent, ruminant or primate. For example, the non-human mammal can be a mouse, rat, dog, pig, goat, sheep, cow, monkey, Pan paniscus, Pan troglodytes, Macaca mulatto, or Cynomolgus monkey. The sequence of the iRNA agent could be complementary to sequences within homologous genes, e.g., oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes, of the non-human mammal and the human. By determining the toxicity of the iRNA agent in the non-human mammal, one can extrapolate the toxicity of the iRNA agent in a human. For a more strenuous toxicity test, the iRNA agent can be complementary to a human and more than one, e.g., two or three or more, non-human animals.

The methods described herein can be used to correlate any physiological effect of an iRNA agent on a human, e.g., any unwanted effect, such as a toxic effect, or any positive, or desired effect.

Delivery Module

In one aspect, the invention features a drug delivery conjugate or module, such as those described herein and those described in copending, co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/454,265, filed on Mar. 12, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention includes iRNA agents described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having a chemical modification described herein, e.g., a modification which enhances resistance to degradation, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, combined with, associated with, and delivered by such a drug delivery conjugate or module.

The iRNA agents can be complexed to a delivery agent that features a modular complex. The complex can include a carrier agent linked to one or more of (preferably two or more, more preferably all three of): (a) a condensing agent (e.g., an agent capable of attracting, e.g., binding, a nucleic acid, e.g., through ionic or electrostatic interactions); (b) a fusogenic agent (e.g., an agent capable of fusing and/or being transported through a cell membrane, e.g., an endosome membrane); and (c) a targeting group, e.g., a cell or tissue targeting agent, e.g., a lectin, glycoprotein, lipid or protein, e.g., an antibody, that binds to a specified cell type such as a cancer cell, endothelial cell or bone cell.

An iRNA agent, e.g., iRNA agent or sRNA agent described herein, can be linked, e.g., coupled or bound, to the modular complex. The iRNA agent can interact with the condensing agent of the complex, and the complex can be used to deliver an iRNA agent to a cell, e.g., in vitro or in vivo. For example, the complex can be used to deliver an iRNA agent to a subject in need thereof, e.g., to deliver an iRNA agent to a subject having a disorder, e.g., a disorder described herein, such as a disease or disorder of the liver.

The fusogenic agent and the condensing agent can be different agents or the one and the same agent. For example, a polyamino chain, e.g., polyethyleneimine (PEI), can be the fusogenic and/or the condensing agent.

The delivery agent can be a modular complex. For example, the complex can include a carrier agent linked to one or more of (preferably two or more, more preferably all three of):

(a) a condensing agent (e.g., an agent capable of attracting, e.g., binding, a nucleic acid, e.g., through ionic interaction),

(b) a fusogenic agent (e.g., an agent capable of fusing and/or being transported through a cell membrane, e.g., an endosome membrane), and

(c) a targeting group, e.g., a cell or tissue targeting agent, e.g., a lectin, glycoprotein, lipid or protein, e.g., an antibody, that binds to a specified cell type such as a cancer cell, endothelial cell, bone cell. A targeting group can be a thyrotropin, melanotropin, lectin, glycoprotein, surfactant protein A, Mucin carbohydrate, multivalent lactose, multivalent galactose, N-acetyl-galactosamine, N-acetyl-gulucosamine multivalent mannose, multivalent fucose, glycosylated polyaminoacids, multivalent galactose, transferrin, bisphosphonate, polyglutamate, polyaspartate, a lipid, cholesterol, a steroid, bile acid, folate, vitamin B12, biotin, Neproxin, or an RGD peptide or RGD peptide mimetic.

Carrier Agents

The carrier agent of a modular complex described herein can be a substrate for attachment of one or more of: a condensing agent, a fusogenic agent, and a targeting group. The carrier agent would preferably lack an endogenous enzymatic activity. The agent would preferably be a biological molecule, preferably a macromolecule. Polymeric biological carriers are preferred. It would also be preferred that the carrier molecule be biodegradable.

The carrier agent can be a naturally occurring substance, such as a protein (e.g., human serum albumin (HSA), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or globulin); carbohydrate (e.g., a dextran, pullulan, chitin, chitosan, inulin, cyclodextrin or hyaluronic acid); or lipid. The carrier molecule can also be a recombinant or synthetic molecule, such as a synthetic polymer, e.g., a synthetic polyamino acid. Examples of polyamino acids include polylysine (PLL), poly L-aspartic acid, poly L-glutamic acid, styrene-maleic acid anhydride copolymer, poly(L-lactide-co-glycolied) copolymer, divinyl ether-maleic anhydride copolymer, N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide copolymer (HMPA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyurethane, poly(2-ethylacryllic acid), N-isopropylacrylamide polymers, or polyphosphazine. Other useful carrier molecules can be identified by routine methods.

A carrier agent can be characterized by one or more of: (a) is at least 1 Da in size; (b) has at least 5 charged groups, preferably between 5 and 5000 charged groups; (c) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 carrier agent to fusogenic agent; (d) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 carrier agent to condensing agent; (e) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 carrier agent to targeting agent.

Fusogenic Agents

A fusogenic agent of a modular complex described herein can be an agent that is responsive to, e.g., changes charge depending on, the pH environment. Upon encountering the pH of an endosome, it can cause a physical change, e.g., a change in osmotic properties which disrupts or increases the permeability of the endosome membrane. Preferably, the fusogenic agent changes charge, e.g., becomes protonated, at pH lower than physiological range. For example, the fusogenic agent can become protonated at pH 4.5-6.5. The fusogenic agent can serve to release the iRNA agent into the cytoplasm of a cell after the complex is taken up, e.g., via endocytosis, by the cell, thereby increasing the cellular concentration of the iRNA agent in the cell.

In one embodiment, the fusogenic agent can have a moiety, e.g., an amino group, which, when exposed to a specified pH range, will undergo a change, e.g., in charge, e.g., protonation. The change in charge of the fusogenic agent can trigger a change, e.g., an osmotic change, in a vesicle, e.g., an endocytic vesicle, e.g., an endosome. For example, the fusogenic agent, upon being exposed to the pH environment of an endosome, will cause a solubility or osmotic change substantial enough to increase the porosity of (preferably, to rupture) the endosomal membrane.

The fusogenic agent can be a polymer, preferably a polyamino chain, e.g., polyethyleneimine (PEI). The PEI can be linear, branched, synthetic or natural. The PEI can be, e.g., alkyl substituted PEI, or lipid substituted PEI.

In other embodiments, the fusogenic agent can be polyhistidine, polyimidazole, polypyridine, polypropyleneimine, mellitin, or a polyacetal substance, e.g., a cationic polyacetal. In some embodiment, the fusogenic agent can have an alpha helical structure. The fusogenic agent can be a membrane disruptive agent, e.g., mellittin.

A fusogenic agent can have one or more of the following characteristics: (a) is at least 1 Da in size; (b) has at least 10 charged groups, preferably between 10 and 5000 charged groups, more preferably between 50 and 1000 charged groups; (c) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 fusogenic agent to carrier agent; (d) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 fusogenic agent to condensing agent; (e) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 fusogenic agent to targeting agent.

Other suitable fusogenic agents can be tested and identified by a skilled artisan. The ability of a compound to respond to, e.g., change charge depending on, the pH environment can be tested by routine methods, e.g., in a cellular assay. For example, a test compound is combined or contacted with a cell, and the cell is allowed to take up the test compound, e.g., by endocytosis. An endosome preparation can then be made from the contacted cells and the endosome preparation compared to an endosome preparation from control cells. A change, e.g., a decrease, in the endosome fraction from the contacted cell vs. the control cell indicates that the test compound can function as a fusogenic agent. Alternatively, the contacted cell and control cell can be evaluated, e.g., by microscopy, e.g., by light or electron microscopy, to determine a difference in endosome population in the cells. The test compound can be labeled. In another type of assay, a modular complex described herein is constructed using one or more test or putative fusogenic agents. The modular complex can be constructed using a labeled nucleic acid instead of the iRNA. The ability of the fusogenic agent to respond to, e.g., change charge depending on, the pH environment, once the modular complex is taken up by the cell, can be evaluated, e.g., by preparation of an endosome preparation, or by microscopy techniques, as described above. A two-step assay can also be performed, wherein a first assay evaluates the ability of a test compound alone to respond to, e.g., change charge depending on, the pH environment; and a second assay evaluates the ability of a modular complex that includes the test compound to respond to, e.g., change charge depending on, the pH environment.

Condensing Agent

The condensing agent of a modular complex described herein can interact with (e.g., attracts, holds, or binds to) an iRNA agent and act to (a) condense, e.g., reduce the size or charge of the iRNA agent and/or (b) protect the iRNA agent, e.g., protect the iRNA agent against degradation. The condensing agent can include a moiety, e.g., a charged moiety, that can interact with a nucleic acid, e.g., an iRNA agent, e.g., by ionic interactions. The condensing agent would preferably be a charged polymer, e.g., a polycationic chain. The condensing agent can be a polylysine (PLL), spermine, spermidine, polyamine, pseudopeptide-polyamine, peptidomimetic polyamine, dendrimer polyamine, arginine, amidine, protamine, cationic lipid, cationic porphyrin, quarternary salt of a polyamine, or an alpha helical peptide.

A condensing agent can have the following characteristics: (a) at least 1 Da in size; (b) has at least 2 charged groups, preferably between 2 and 100 charged groups; (c) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 condensing agent to carrier agent; (d) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 condensing agent to fusogenic agent; (e) is present in the complex at a ratio of at least 1:1 condensing agent to targeting agent.

Other suitable condensing agents can be tested and identified by a skilled artisan, e.g., by evaluating the ability of a test agent to interact with a nucleic acid, e.g., an iRNA agent. The ability of a test agent to interact with a nucleic acid, e.g., an iRNA agent, e.g., to condense or protect the iRNA agent, can be evaluated by routine techniques. In one assay, a test agent is contacted with a nucleic acid, and the size and/or charge of the contacted nucleic acid is evaluated by a technique suitable to detect changes in molecular mass and/or charge. Such techniques include non-denaturing gel electrophoresis, immunological methods, e.g., immunoprecipitation, gel filtration, ionic interaction chromatography, and the like. A test agent is identified as a condensing agent if it changes the mass and/or charge (preferably both) of the contacted nucleic acid, compared to a control. A two-step assay can also be performed, wherein a first assay evaluates the ability of a test compound alone to interact with, e.g., bind to, e.g., condense the charge and/or mass of, a nucleic cid; and a second assay evaluates the ability of a modular complex that includes the test compound to interact with, e.g., bind to, e.g., condense the charge and/or mass of, a nucleic acid.

Amphipathic Delivery Agents

In one aspect, the invention features an amphipathic delivery conjugate or module, such as those described herein and those described in copending, co-owned U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/455,050 (Attorney Docket No. 14174-065P₀₁), filed on Mar. 13, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference.

In addition, the invention include an iRNA agent described herein, e.g., a palindromic iRNA agent, an iRNA agent having a non canonical pairing, an iRNA agent which targets a gene described herein, e.g., a gene active in the liver, an iRNA agent having a chemical modification described herein, e.g., a modification which enhances resistance to degradation, an iRNA agent having an architecture or structure described herein, an iRNA agent administered as described herein, or an iRNA agent formulated as described herein, combined with, associated with, and delivered by such an amphipathic delivery conjugate.

An amphipathic molecule is a molecule having a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic region. Such molecules can interact with (e.g., penetrate or disrupt) lipids, e.g., a lipid bylayer of a cell. As such, they can serve as delivery agent for an associated (e.g., bound) iRNA (e.g., an iRNA or sRNA described herein). A preferred amphipathic molecule to be used in the compositions described herein (e.g., the amphipathic iRNA constructs described herein) is a polymer. The polymer may have a secondary structure, e.g., a repeating secondary structure.

One example of an amphipathic polymer is an amphipathic polypeptide, e.g., a polypeptide having a secondary structure such that the polypeptide has a hydrophilic and a hybrophobic face. The design of amphipathic peptide structures (e.g., alpha-helical polypeptides) is routine to one of skill in the art. For example, the following references provide guidance: Grell et al. (2001) Protein design and folding: template trapping of self-assembled helical bundles J Pept Sci 7(3):146-51; Chen et al. (2002) Determination of stereochemistry stability coefficients of amino acid side-chains in an amphipathic alpha-helix J Pept Res 59(1):18-33; Iwata et al. (1994) Design and synthesis of amphipathic 3(10)-helical peptides and their interactions with phospholipid bilayers and ion channel formation J Biol Chem 269(7):4928-33; Cornut et al. (1994) The amphipathic alpha-helix concept. Application to the de novo design of ideally amphipathic Leu, Lys peptides with hemolytic activity higher than that of melittin FEBS Lett 349(1):29-33; Negrete et al. (1998) Deciphering the structural code for proteins: helical propensities in domain classes and statistical multiresidue information in alpha-helices. Protein Sci 7(6):1368-79.

Another example of an amphipathic polymer is a polymer made up of two or more amphipathic subunits, e.g., two or more subunits containing cyclic moieties (e.g., a cyclic moiety having one or more hydrophilic groups and one or more hydrophobic groups). For example, the subunit may contain a steroid, e.g., cholic acid; or a aromatic moiety. Such moieties preferably can exhibit atropisomerism, such that they can form opposing hydrophobic and hydrophilic faces when in a polymer structure.

The ability of a putative amphipathic molecule to interact with a lipid membrane, e.g., a cell membrane, can be tested by routine methods, e.g., in a cell free or cellular assay. For example, a test compound is combined or contacted with a synthetic lipid bilayer, a cellular membrane fraction, or a cell, and the test compound is evaluated for its ability to interact with, penetrate or disrupt the lipid bilayer, cell membrane or cell. The test compound can labeled in order to detect the interaction with the lipid bilayer, cell membrane or cell. In another type of assay, the test compound is linked to a reporter molecule or an iRNA agent (e.g., an iRNA or sRNA described herein) and the ability of the reporter molecule or iRNA agent to penetrate the lipid bilayer, cell membrane or cell is evaluated. A two-step assay can also be performed, wherein a first assay evaluates the ability of a test compound alone to interact with a lipid bilayer, cell membrane or cell; and a second assay evaluates the ability of a construct (e.g., a construct described herein) that includes the test compound and a reporter or iRNA agent to interact with a lipid bilayer, cell membrane or cell.

An amphipathic polymer useful in the compositions described herein has at least 2, preferably at least 5, more preferably at least 10, 25, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 50000 or more subunits (e.g., amino acids or cyclic subunits). A single amphipathic polymer can be linked to one or more, e.g., 2, 3, 5, 10 or more iRNA agents (e.g., iRNA or sRNA agents described herein). In some embodiments, an amphipathic polymer can contain both amino acid and cyclic subunits, e.g., aromatic subunits.

The invention features a composition that includes an iRNA agent (e.g., an iRNA or sRNA described herein) in association with an amphipathic molecule. Such compositions may be referred to herein as “amphipathic iRNA constructs.” Such compositions and constructs are useful in the delivery or targeting of iRNA agents, e.g., delivery or targeting of iRNA agents to a cell. While not wanting to be bound by theory, such compositions and constructs can increase the porosity of, e.g., can penetrate or disrupt, a lipid (e.g., a lipid bilayer of a cell), e.g., to allow entry of the iRNA agent into a cell.

In one aspect, the invention relates to a composition comprising an iRNA agent (e.g., an iRNA or sRNA agent described herein) linked to an amphipathic molecule. The iRNA agent and the amphipathic molecule may be held in continuous contact with one another by either covalent or noncovalent linkages.

The amphipathic molecule of the composition or construct is preferably other than a phospholipid, e.g., other than a micelle, membrane or membrane fragment.

The amphipathic molecule of the composition or construct is preferably a polymer. The polymer may include two or more amphipathic subunits. One or more hydrophilic groups and one or more hydrophobic groups may be present on the polymer. The polymer may have a repeating secondary structure as well as a first face and a second face. The distribution of the hydrophilic groups and the hydrophobic groups along the repeating secondary structure can be such that one face of the polymer is a hydrophilic face and the other face of the polymer is a hydrophobic face.

The amphipathic molecule can be a polypeptide, e.g., a polypeptide comprising an α-helical conformation as its secondary structure.

In one embodiment, the amphipathic polymer includes one or more subunits containing one or more cyclic moiety (e.g., a cyclic moiety having one or more hydrophilic groups and/or one or more hydrophobic groups). In one embodiment, the polymer is a polymer of cyclic moieties such that the moieties have alternating hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups. For example, the subunit may contain a steroid, e.g., cholic acid. In another example, the subunit may contain an aromatic moiety. The aromatic moiety may be one that can exhibit atropisomerism, e.g., a 2,2′-bis(substituted)-1-1′-binaphthyl or a 2,2′-bis(substituted) biphenyl. A subunit may include an aromatic moiety of Formula (M):

Increasing Cellular Uptake of dsRNAs

A method of the invention that can include the administration of an iRNA agent and a drug that affects the uptake of the iRNA agent into the cell. The drug can be administered before, after, or at the same time that the iRNA agent is administered. The drug can be covalently linked to the iRNA agent. The drug can be, for example, a lipopolysaccharide, an activator of p38 MAP kinase, or an activator of NF-κB. The drug can have a transient effect on the cell.

The drug can increase the uptake of the iRNA agent into the cell, for example, by disrupting the cell's cytoskeleton, e.g., by disrupting the cell's microtubules, microfilaments, and/or intermediate filaments. The drug can be, for example, taxon, vincristine, vinblastine, cytochalasin, nocodazole, japlakinolide, latrunculin A, phalloidin, swinholide A, indanocine, or myoservin.

The drug can also increase the uptake of the iRNA agent into the cell by activating an inflammatory response, for example. Exemplary drug's that would have such an effect include tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), interleukin-1 beta, or gamma interferon.

iRNA Conjugates

An iRNA agent can be coupled, e.g., covalently coupled, to a second agent. For example, an iRNA agent used to treat a particular disorder can be coupled to a second therapeutic agent, e.g., an agent other than the iRNA agent. The second therapeutic agent can be one which is directed to the treatment of the same disorder. For example, in the case of an iRNA used to treat a disorder characterized by unwanted cell proliferation, e.g., cancer, the iRNA agent can be coupled to a second agent which has an anti-cancer effect. For example, it can be coupled to an agent which stimulates the immune system, e.g., a CpG motif, or more generally an agent that activates a toll-like receptor and/or increases the production of gamma interferon.

iRNA Production

An iRNA can be produced, e.g., in bulk, by a variety of methods. Exemplary methods include: organic synthesis and RNA cleavage, e.g., in vitro cleavage.

Organic Synthesis

An iRNA can be made by separately synthesizing each respective strand of a double-stranded RNA molecule. The component strands can then be annealed.

A large bioreactor, e.g., the OligoPilot II from Pharmacia Biotec AB (Uppsala Sweden), can be used to produce a large amount of a particular RNA strand for a given iRNA. The OligoPilotII reactor can efficiently couple a nucleotide using only a 1.5 molar excess of a phosphoramidite nucleotide. To make an RNA strand, ribonucleotides amidites are used. Standard cycles of monomer addition can be used to synthesize the 21 to 23 nucleotide strand for the iRNA. Typically, the two complementary strands are produced separately and then annealed, e.g., after release from the solid support and deprotection.

Organic synthesis can be used to produce a discrete iRNA species. The complementary of the species to a particular target gene can be precisely specified. For example, the species may be complementary to a region that includes a polymorphism, e.g., a single nucleotide polymorphism. Further the location of the polymorphism can be precisely defined. In some embodiments, the polymorphism is located in an internal region, e.g., at least 4, 5, 7, or 9 nucleotides from one or both of the termini.

dsRNA Cleavage

iRNAs can also be made by cleaving a larger ds iRNA. The cleavage can be mediated in vitro or in vivo. For example, to produce iRNAs by cleavage in vitro, the following method can be used:

In vitro transcription. dsRNA is produced by transcribing a nucleic acid (DNA) segment in both directions. For example, the HiScribe™ RNAi transcription kit (New England Biolabs) provides a vector and a method for producing a dsRNA for a nucleic acid segment that is cloned into the vector at a position flanked on either side by a T7 promoter. Separate templates are generated for T7 transcription of the two complementary strands for the dsRNA. The templates are transcribed in vitro by addition of T7 RNA polymerase and dsRNA is produced. Similar methods using PCR and/or other RNA polymerases (e.g., T3 or SP6 polymerase) can also be used. In one embodiment, RNA generated by this method is carefully purified to remove endotoxins that may contaminate preparations of the recombinant enzymes.

In vitro cleavage. dsRNA is cleaved in vitro into iRNAs, for example, using a Dicer or comparable RNAse III-based activity. For example, the dsRNA can be incubated in an in vitro extract from Drosophila or using purified components, e.g. a purified RNAse or RISC complex (RNA-induced silencing complex). See, e.g., Ketting et al. Genes Dev 2001 Oct. 15; 15(20):2654-9. and Hammond Science 2001 Aug. 10; 293(5532):1146-50.

dsRNA cleavage generally produces a plurality of iRNA species, each being a particular 21 to 23 nt fragment of a source dsRNA molecule. For example, iRNAs that include sequences complementary to overlapping regions and adjacent regions of a source dsRNA molecule may be present.

Regardless of the method of synthesis, the iRNA preparation can be prepared in a solution (e.g., an aqueous and/or organic solution) that is appropriate for formulation. For example, the iRNA preparation can be precipitated and redissolved in pure double-distilled water, and lyophilized. The dried iRNA can then be resuspended in a solution appropriate for the intended formulation process.

Synthesis of modified and nucleotide surrogate iRNA agents is discussed below.

Formulation

The iRNA agents described herein can be formulated for administration to a subject

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention.

A formulated iRNA composition can assume a variety of states. In some examples, the composition is at least partially crystalline, uniformly crystalline, and/or anhydrous (e.g., less than 80, 50, 30, 20, or 10% water). In another example, the iRNA is in an aqueous phase, e.g., in a solution that includes water.

The aqueous phase or the crystalline compositions can, e.g., be incorporated into a delivery vehicle, e.g., a liposome (particularly for the aqueous phase) or a particle (e.g., a microparticle as can be appropriate for a crystalline composition). Generally, the iRNA composition is formulated in a manner that is compatible with the intended method of administration (see, below).

In particular embodiments, the composition is prepared by at least one of the following methods: spray drying, lyophilization, vacuum drying, evaporation, fluid bed drying, or a combination of these techniques; or sonication with a lipid, freeze-drying, condensation and other self-assembly.

A iRNA preparation can be formulated in combination with another agent, e.g., another therapeutic agent or an agent that stabilizes a iRNA, e.g., a protein that complexes with iRNA to form an iRNP. Still other agents include chelators, e.g., EDTA (e.g., to remove divalent cations such as Mg²⁺), salts, RNAse inhibitors (e.g., a broad specificity RNAse inhibitor such as RNAsin) and so forth.

In one embodiment, the iRNA preparation includes another iRNA agent, e.g., a second iRNA that can mediated RNAi with respect to a second gene, or with respect to the same gene. Still other preparation can include at least 3, 5, ten, twenty, fifty, or a hundred or more different iRNA species. Such iRNAs can mediated RNAi with respect to a similar number of different genes.

In one embodiment, the iRNA preparation includes at least a second therapeutic agent (e.g., an agent other than an RNA or a DNA). For example, a iRNA composition for the treatment of a viral disease, e.g. HIV, might include a known antiviral agent (e.g., a protease inhibitor or reverse transcriptase inhibitor). In another example, a iRNA composition for the treatment of a cancer might further comprise a chemotherapeutic agent.

Exemplary formulations are discussed below:

Liposomes

It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA s agents, and such practice is within the invention. An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) preparation can be formulated for delivery in a membranous molecular assembly, e.g., a liposome or a micelle. As used herein, the term “liposome” refers to a vesicle composed of amphiphilic lipids arranged in at least one bilayer, e.g., one bilayer or a plurality of bilayers. Liposomes include unilamellar and multilamellar vesicles that have a membrane formed from a lipophilic material and an aqueous interior. The aqueous portion contains the iRNA composition. The lipophilic material isolates the aqueous interior from an aqueous exterior, which typically does not include the iRNA composition, although in some examples, it may. Liposomes are useful for the transfer and delivery of active ingredients to the site of action. Because the liposomal membrane is structurally similar to biological membranes, when liposomes are applied to a tissue, the liposomal bilayer fuses with bilayer of the cellular membranes. As the merging of the liposome and cell progresses, the internal aqueous contents that include the iRNA are delivered into the cell where the iRNA can specifically bind to a target RNA and can mediate RNAi. In some cases the liposomes are also specifically targeted, e.g., to direct the iRNA to particular cell types.

A liposome containing a iRNA can be prepared by a variety of methods.

In one example, the lipid component of a liposome is dissolved in a detergent so that micelles are formed with the lipid component. For example, the lipid component can be an amphipathic cationic lipid or lipid conjugate. The detergent can have a high critical micelle concentration and may be nonionic. Exemplary detergents include cholate, CHAPS, octylglucoside, deoxycholate, and lauroyl sarcosine. The iRNA preparation is then added to the micelles that include the lipid component. The cationic groups on the lipid interact with the iRNA and condense around the iRNA to form a liposome. After condensation, the detergent is removed, e.g., by dialysis, to yield a liposomal preparation of iRNA.

If necessary a carrier compound that assists in condensation can be added during the condensation reaction, e.g., by controlled addition. For example, the carrier compound can be a polymer other than a nucleic acid (e.g., spermine or spermidine). pH can also adjusted to favor condensation.

Further description of methods for producing stable polynucleotide delivery vehicles, which incorporate a polynucleotide/cationic lipid complex as structural components of the delivery vehicle, are described in, e.g., WO 96/37194. Liposome formation can also include one or more aspects of exemplary methods described in Felgner, P. L. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA 8:7413-7417, 1987; U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,897,355; 5,171,678; Bangham, et al. M Mol. Biol. 23:238, 1965; Olson, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 557:9, 1979; Szoka, et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 75: 4194, 1978; Mayhew, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 775:169, 1984; Kim, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 728:339, 1983; and Fukunaga, et al. Endocrinol. 115:757, 1984. Commonly used techniques for preparing lipid aggregates of appropriate size for use as delivery vehicles include sonication and freeze-thaw plus extrusion (see, e.g., Mayer, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 858:161, 1986). Microfluidization can be used when consistently small (50 to 200 nm) and relatively uniform aggregates are desired (Mayhew, et al. Biochim. Biophys. Acta 775:169, 1984). These methods are readily adapted to packaging iRNA preparations into liposomes.

Liposomes that are pH-sensitive or negatively-charged, entrap nucleic acid molecules rather than complex with them. Since both the nucleic acid molecules and the lipid are similarly charged, repulsion rather than complex formation occurs. Nevertheless, some nucleic acid molecules are entrapped within the aqueous interior of these liposomes. pH-sensitive liposomes have been used to deliver DNA encoding the thymidine kinase gene to cell monolayers in culture. Expression of the exogenous gene was detected in the target cells (Zhou et al., Journal of Controlled Release, 19, (1992) 269-274).

One major type of liposomal composition includes phospholipids other than naturally-derived phosphatidylcholine. Neutral liposome compositions, for example, can be formed from dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) or dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC). Anionic liposome compositions generally are formed from dimyristoyl phosphatidylglycerol, while anionic fusogenic liposomes are formed primarily from dioleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE). Another type of liposomal composition is formed from phosphatidylcholine (PC) such as, for example, soybean PC, and egg PC. Another type is formed from mixtures of phospholipid and/or phosphatidylcholine and/or cholesterol.

Examples of other methods to introduce liposomes into cells in vitro and in vivo include U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,283,185; 5,171,678; WO 94/00569; WO 93/24640; WO 91/16024; Felgner, J. Biol. Chem. 269:2550, 1994; Nabel, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 90:11307, 1993; Nabel, Human Gene Ther. 3:649, 1992; Gershon, Biochem. 32:7143, 1993; and Strauss EMBO J. 11:417, 1992.

In one embodiment, cationic liposomes are used. Cationic liposomes possess the advantage of being able to fuse to the cell membrane. Non-cationic liposomes, although not able to fuse as efficiently with the plasma membrane, are taken up by macrophages in vivo and can be used to deliver iRNAs to macrophages.

Further advantages of liposomes include: liposomes obtained from natural phospholipids are biocompatible and biodegradable; liposomes can incorporate a wide range of water and lipid soluble drugs; liposomes can protect encapsulated iRNAs in their internal compartments from metabolism and degradation (Rosoff, in “Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms,” Lieberman, Rieger and Banker (Eds.), 1988, volume 1, p. 245). Important considerations in the preparation of liposome formulations are the lipid surface charge, vesicle size and the aqueous volume of the liposomes.

A positively charged synthetic cationic lipid, N-[1-(2,3-dioleyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium chloride (DOTMA) can be used to form small liposomes that interact spontaneously with nucleic acid to form lipid-nucleic acid complexes which are capable of fusing with the negatively charged lipids of the cell membranes of tissue culture cells, resulting in delivery of iRNA (see, e.g., Felgner, P. L. et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA 8:7413-7417, 1987 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,897,355 for a description of DOTMA and its use with DNA).

A DOTMA analogue, 1,2-bis(oleoyloxy)-3-(trimethylammonia)propane (DOTAP) can be used in combination with a phospholipid to form DNA-complexing vesicles. Lipofectin™ Bethesda Research Laboratories, Gaithersburg, Md.) is an effective agent for the delivery of highly anionic nucleic acids into living tissue culture cells that comprise positively charged DOTMA liposomes which interact spontaneously with negatively charged polynucleotides to form complexes. When enough positively charged liposomes are used, the net charge on the resulting complexes is also positive. Positively charged complexes prepared in this way spontaneously attach to negatively charged cell surfaces, fuse with the plasma membrane, and efficiently deliver functional nucleic acids into, for example, tissue culture cells. Another commercially available cationic lipid, 1,2-bis(oleoyloxy)-3,3-(trimethylammonia)propane (“DOTAP”) (Boehringer Mannheim, Indianapolis, Ind.) differs from DOTMA in that the oleoyl moieties are linked by ester, rather than ether linkages.

Other reported cationic lipid compounds include those that have been conjugated to a variety of moieties including, for example, carboxyspermine which has been conjugated to one of two types of lipids and includes compounds such as 5-carboxyspermylglycine dioctaoleoylamide (“DOGS”) (Transfectam™, Promega, Madison, Wis.) and dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine 5-carboxyspermyl-amide (“DPPES”) (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,171,678).

Another cationic lipid conjugate includes derivatization of the lipid with cholesterol (“DC-Chol”) which has been formulated into liposomes in combination with DOPE (See, Gao, X. and Huang, L., Biochim. Biophys. Res. Commun. 179:280, 1991). Lipopolylysine, made by conjugating polylysine to DOPE, has been reported to be effective for transfection in the presence of serum (Zhou, X. et al., Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1065:8, 1991). For certain cell lines, these liposomes containing conjugated cationic lipids, are said to exhibit lower toxicity and provide more efficient transfection than the DOTMA-containing compositions. Other commercially available cationic lipid products include DMRIE and DMRIE-HP (Vical, La Jolla, Calif.) and Lipofectamine (DOSPA) (Life Technology, Inc., Gaithersburg, Md.). Other cationic lipids suitable for the delivery of oligonucleotides are described in WO 98/39359 and WO 96/37194.

Liposomal formulations are particularly suited for topical administration, liposomes present several advantages over other formulations. Such advantages include reduced side effects related to high systemic absorption of the administered drug, increased accumulation of the administered drug at the desired target, and the ability to administer iRNA, into the skin. In some implementations, liposomes are used for delivering iRNA to epidermal cells and also to enhance the penetration of iRNA into dermal tissues, e.g., into skin. For example, the liposomes can be applied topically. Topical delivery of drugs formulated as liposomes to the skin has been documented (see, e.g., Weiner et al., Journal of Drug Targeting, 1992, vol. 2,405-410 and du Plessis et al., Antiviral Research, 18, 1992, 259-265; Mannino, R. J. and Fould-Fogerite, S., Biotechniques 6:682-690, 1988; Itani, T. et al. Gene 56:267-276. 1987; Nicolau, C. et al. Meth. Enz. 149:157-176, 1987; Straubinger, R. M. and Papahadjopoulos, D. Meth. Enz. 101:512-527, 1983; Wang, C. Y. and Huang, L., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:7851-7855, 1987).

Non-ionic liposomal systems have also been examined to determine their utility in the delivery of drugs to the skin, in particular systems comprising non-ionic surfactant and cholesterol. Non-ionic liposomal formulations comprising Novasome I (glyceryl dilaurate/cholesterol/polyoxyethylene-10-stearyl ether) and Novasome II (glyceryl distearate/cholesterol/polyoxyethylene-10-stearyl ether) were used to deliver a drug into the dermis of mouse skin. Such formulations with iRNA are useful for treating a dermatological disorder.

Liposomes that include iRNA can be made highly deformable. Such deformability can enable the liposomes to penetrate through pore that are smaller than the average radius of the liposome. For example, transfersomes are a type of deformable liposomes. Transferosomes can be made by adding surface edge activators, usually surfactants, to a standard liposomal composition. Transfersomes that include iRNA can be delivered, for example, subcutaneously by infection in order to deliver iRNA to keratinocytes in the skin. In order to cross intact mammalian skin, lipid vesicles must pass through a series of fine pores, each with a diameter less than 50 nm, under the influence of a suitable transdermal gradient. In addition, due to the lipid properties, these transferosomes can be self-optimizing (adaptive to the shape of pores, e.g., in the skin), self-repairing, and can frequently reach their targets without fragmenting, and often self-loading. The iRNA agents can include an RRMS tethered to a moiety which improves association with a liposome.

Surfactants

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. Surfactants find wide application in formulations such as emulsions (including microemulsions) and liposomes (see above). iRNA (or a precursor, e.g., a larger dsRNA which can be processed into a iRNA, or a DNA which encodes a iRNA or precursor) compositions can include a surfactant. In one embodiment, the iRNA is formulated as an emulsion that includes a surfactant. The most common way of classifying and ranking the properties of the many different types of surfactants, both natural and synthetic, is by the use of the hydrophile/lipophile balance (HLB). The nature of the hydrophilic group provides the most useful means for categorizing the different surfactants used in formulations (Rieger, in “Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms,” Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, N.Y., 1988, p. 285).

If the surfactant molecule is not ionized, it is classified as a nonionic surfactant. Nonionic surfactants find wide application in pharmaceutical products and are usable over a wide range of pH values. In general their HLB values range from 2 to about 18 depending on their structure. Nonionic surfactants include nonionic esters such as ethylene glycol esters, propylene glycol esters, glyceryl esters, polyglyceryl esters, sorbitan esters, sucrose esters, and ethoxylated esters. Nonionic alkanolamides and ethers such as fatty alcohol ethoxylates, propoxylated alcohols, and ethoxylated/propoxylated block polymers are also included in this class. The polyoxyethylene surfactants are the most popular members of the nonionic surfactant class.

If the surfactant molecule carries a negative charge when it is dissolved or dispersed in water, the surfactant is classified as anionic. Anionic surfactants include carboxylates such as soaps, acyl lactylates, acyl amides of amino acids, esters of sulfuric acid such as alkyl sulfates and ethoxylated alkyl sulfates, sulfonates such as alkyl benzene sulfonates, acyl isethionates, acyl taurates and sulfosuccinates, and phosphates. The most important members of the anionic surfactant class are the alkyl sulfates and the soaps.

If the surfactant molecule carries a positive charge when it is dissolved or dispersed in water, the surfactant is classified as cationic. Cationic surfactants include quaternary ammonium salts and ethoxylated amines. The quaternary ammonium salts are the most used members of this class.

If the surfactant molecule has the ability to carry either a positive or negative charge, the surfactant is classified as amphoteric. Amphoteric surfactants include acrylic acid derivatives, substituted alkylamides, N-alkylbetaines and phosphatides.

The use of surfactants in drug products, formulations and in emulsions has been reviewed (Rieger, in “Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms,” Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, N.Y., 1988, p. 285).

Micelles and other Membranous Formulations

For ease of exposition the micelles and other formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these micelles and other formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. The iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof)) composition can be provided as a micellar formulation. “Micelles” are defined herein as a particular type of molecular assembly in which amphipathic molecules are arranged in a spherical structure such that all the hydrophobic portions of the molecules are directed inward, leaving the hydrophilic portions in contact with the surrounding aqueous phase. The converse arrangement exists if the environment is hydrophobic.

A mixed micellar formulation suitable for delivery through transdermal membranes may be prepared by mixing an aqueous solution of the iRNA composition, an alkali metal C₈ to C₂₂ alkyl sulphate, and a micelle forming compounds. Exemplary micelle forming compounds include lecithin, hyaluronic acid, pharmaceutically acceptable salts of hyaluronic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, chamomile extract, cucumber extract, oleic acid, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, monoolein, monooleates, monolaurates, borage oil, evening of primrose oil, menthol, trihydroxy oxo cholanyl glycine and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, glycerin, polyglycerin, lysine, polylysine, triolein, polyoxyethylene ethers and analogues thereof, polidocanol alkyl ethers and analogues thereof, chenodeoxycholate, deoxycholate, and mixtures thereof. The micelle forming compounds may be added at the same time or after addition of the alkali metal alkyl sulphate. Mixed micelles will form with substantially any kind of mixing of the ingredients but vigorous mixing is preferred in order to provide smaller size micelles.

In one method a first micellar composition is prepared which contains the iRNA composition and at least the alkali metal alkyl sulphate. The first micellar composition is then mixed with at least three micelle forming compounds to form a mixed micellar composition. In another method, the micellar composition is prepared by mixing the iRNA composition, the alkali metal alkyl sulphate and at least one of the micelle forming compounds, followed by addition of the remaining micelle forming compounds, with vigorous mixing.

Phenol and/or m-cresol may be added to the mixed micellar composition to stabilize the formulation and protect against bacterial growth. Alternatively, phenol and/or m-cresol may be added with the micelle forming ingredients. An isotonic agent such as glycerin may also be added after formation of the mixed micellar composition.

For delivery of the micellar formulation as a spray, the formulation can be put into an aerosol dispenser and the dispenser is charged with a propellant. The propellant, which is under pressure, is in liquid form in the dispenser. The ratios of the ingredients are adjusted so that the aqueous and propellant phases become one, i.e. there is one phase. If there are two phases, it is necessary to shake the dispenser prior to dispensing a portion of the contents, e.g. through a metered valve. The dispensed dose of pharmaceutical agent is propelled from the metered valve in a fine spray.

The preferred propellants are hydrogen-containing chlorofluorocarbons, hydrogen-containing fluorocarbons, dimethyl ether and diethyl ether. Even more preferred is HFA 134a (1,1,1,2 tetrafluoroethane).

The specific concentrations of the essential ingredients can be determined by relatively straightforward experimentation. For absorption through the oral cavities, it is often desirable to increase, e.g. at least double or triple, the dosage for through injection or administration through the gastrointestinal tract.

The iRNA agents can include an RRMS tethered to a moiety which improves association with a micelle or other membranous formulation.

Particles

For ease of exposition the particles, formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these particles, formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. In another embodiment, an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) preparations may be incorporated into a particle, e.g., a microparticle. Microparticles can be produced by spray-drying, but may also be produced by other methods including lyophilization, evaporation, fluid bed drying, vacuum drying, or a combination of these techniques. See below for further description.

Sustained-Release Formulations. An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) described herein can be formulated for controlled, e.g., slow release. Controlled release can be achieved by disposing the iRNA within a structure or substance which impedes its release. E.g., iRNA can be disposed within a porous matrix or in an erodable matrix, either of which allow release of the iRNA over a period of time.

Polymeric particles, e.g., polymeric in microparticles can be used as a sustained-release reservoir of iRNA that is taken up by cells only released from the microparticle through biodegradation. The polymeric particles in this embodiment should therefore be large enough to preclude phagocytosis (e.g., larger than 10 μm and preferably larger than 20 μm). Such particles can be produced by the same methods to make smaller particles, but with less vigorous mixing of the first and second emulsions. That is to say, a lower homogenization speed, vortex mixing speed, or sonication setting can be used to obtain particles having a diameter around 100 μm rather than 10 The time of mixing also can be altered.

Larger microparticles can be formulated as a suspension, a powder, or an implantable solid, to be delivered by intramuscular, subcutaneous, intradermal, intravenous, or intraperitoneal injection; via inhalation (intranasal or intrapulmonary); orally; or by implantation. These particles are useful for delivery of any iRNA when slow release over a relatively long term is desired. The rate of degradation, and consequently of release, varies with the polymeric formulation.

Microparticles preferably include pores, voids, hollows, defects or other interstitial spaces that allow the fluid suspension medium to freely permeate or perfuse the particulate boundary. For example, the perforated microstructures can be used to form hollow, porous spray dried microspheres.

Polymeric particles containing iRNA (e.g., a sRNA) can be made using a double emulsion technique, for instance. First, the polymer is dissolved in an organic solvent. A preferred polymer is polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), with a lactic/glycolic acid weight ratio of 65:35, 50:50, or 75:25. Next, a sample of nucleic acid suspended in aqueous solution is added to the polymer solution and the two solutions are mixed to form a first emulsion. The solutions can be mixed by vortexing or shaking, and in a preferred method, the mixture can be sonicated. Most preferable is any method by which the nucleic acid receives the least amount of damage in the form of nicking, shearing, or degradation, while still allowing the formation of an appropriate emulsion. For example, acceptable results can be obtained with a Vibra-cell model VC-250 sonicator with a ⅛″ microtip probe, at setting #3.

Spray-Drying.

An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof)) can be prepared by spray drying. Spray dried iRNA can be administered to a subject or be subjected to further formulation. A pharmaceutical composition of iRNA can be prepared by spray drying a homogeneous aqueous mixture that includes a iRNA under conditions sufficient to provide a dispersible powdered composition, e.g., a pharmaceutical composition. The material for spray drying can also include one or more of: a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient, or a dispersibility-enhancing amount of a physiologically acceptable, water-soluble protein. The spray-dried product can be a dispersible powder that includes the iRNA.

Spray drying is a process that converts a liquid or slurry material to a dried particulate form. Spray drying can be used to provide powdered material for various administrative routes including inhalation. See, for example, M. Sacchetti and M. M. Van Oort in: Inhalation Aerosols: Physical and Biological Basis for Therapy, A. J. Hickey, ed. Marcel Dekkar, New York, 1996.

Spray drying can include atomizing a solution, emulsion, or suspension to form a fine mist of droplets and drying the droplets. The mist can be projected into a drying chamber (e.g., a vessel, tank, tubing, or coil) where it contacts a drying gas. The mist can include solid or liquid pore forming agents. The solvent and pore forming agents evaporate from the droplets into the drying gas to solidify the droplets, simultaneously forming pores throughout the solid. The solid (typically in a powder, particulate form) then is separated from the drying gas and collected.

Spray drying includes bringing together a highly dispersed liquid, and a sufficient volume of air (e.g., hot air) to produce evaporation and drying of the liquid droplets. The preparation to be spray dried can be any solution, course suspension, slurry, colloidal dispersion, or paste that may be atomized using the selected spray drying apparatus. Typically, the feed is sprayed into a current of warm filtered air that evaporates the solvent and conveys the dried product to a collector. The spent air is then exhausted with the solvent. Several different types of apparatus may be used to provide the desired product. For example, commercial spray dryers manufactured by Buchi Ltd. or Niro Corp. can effectively produce particles of desired size.

Spray-dried powdered particles can be approximately spherical in shape, nearly uniform in size and frequently hollow. There may be some degree of irregularity in shape depending upon the incorporated medicament and the spray drying conditions. In many instances the dispersion stability of spray-dried microspheres appears to be more effective if an inflating agent (or blowing agent) is used in their production. Particularly preferred embodiments may comprise an emulsion with an inflating agent as the disperse or continuous phase (the other phase being aqueous in nature). An inflating agent is preferably dispersed with a surfactant solution, using, for instance, a commercially available microfluidizer at a pressure of about 5000 to 15,000 psi. This process forms an emulsion, preferably stabilized by an incorporated surfactant, typically comprising submicron droplets of water immiscible blowing agent dispersed in an aqueous continuous phase. The formation of such dispersions using this and other techniques are common and well known to those in the art. The blowing agent is preferably a fluorinated compound (e.g. perfluorohexane, perfluorooctyl bromide, perfluorodecalin, perfluorobutyl ethane) which vaporizes during the spray-drying process, leaving behind generally hollow, porous aerodynamically light microspheres. As will be discussed in more detail below, other suitable blowing agents include chloroform, freons, and hydrocarbons. Nitrogen gas and carbon dioxide are also contemplated as a suitable blowing agent.

Although the perforated microstructures are preferably formed using a blowing agent as described above, it will be appreciated that, in some instances, no blowing agent is required and an aqueous dispersion of the medicament and surfactant(s) are spray dried directly. In such cases, the formulation may be amenable to process conditions (e.g., elevated temperatures) that generally lead to the formation of hollow, relatively porous microparticles. Moreover, the medicament may possess special physicochemical properties (e.g., high crystallinity, elevated melting temperature, surface activity, etc.) that make it particularly suitable for use in such techniques.

The perforated microstructures may optionally be associated with, or comprise, one or more surfactants. Moreover, miscible surfactants may optionally be combined with the suspension medium liquid phase. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the use of surfactants may further increase dispersion stability, simplify formulation procedures or increase bioavailability upon administration. Of course combinations of surfactants, including the use of one or more in the liquid phase and one or more associated with the perforated microstructures are contemplated as being within the scope of the invention. By “associated with or comprise” it is meant that the structural matrix or perforated microstructure may incorporate, adsorb, absorb, be coated with or be formed by the surfactant.

Surfactants suitable for use include any compound or composition that aids in the formation and maintenance of the stabilized respiratory dispersions by forming a layer at the interface between the structural matrix and the suspension medium. The surfactant may comprise a single compound or any combination of compounds, such as in the case of co-surfactants. Particularly preferred surfactants are substantially insoluble in the propellant, nonfluorinated, and selected from the group consisting of saturated and unsaturated lipids, nonionic detergents, nonionic block copolymers, ionic surfactants, and combinations of such agents. It should be emphasized that, in addition to the aforementioned surfactants, suitable (i.e. biocompatible) fluorinated surfactants are compatible with the teachings herein and may be used to provide the desired stabilized preparations.

Lipids, including phospholipids, from both natural and synthetic sources may be used in varying concentrations to form a structural matrix. Generally, compatible lipids comprise those that have a gel to liquid crystal phase transition greater than about 40° C. Preferably, the incorporated lipids are relatively long chain (i.e. C₆-C₂₂) saturated lipids and more preferably comprise phospholipids. Exemplary phospholipids useful in the disclosed stabilized preparations comprise egg phosphatidylcholine, dilauroylphosphatidylcholine, dioleylphosphatidylcholine, dipalmitoylphosphatidyl-choline, di steroylphosphatidylcholine, short-chain phosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylethanolamine, dioleylphosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, glycolipids, ganglioside GM1, sphingomyelin, phosphatidic acid, cardiolipin; lipids bearing polymer chains such as, polyethylene glycol, chitin, hyaluronic acid, or polyvinylpyrrolidone; lipids bearing sulfonated mono-, di-, and polysaccharides; fatty acids such as palmitic acid, stearic acid, and oleic acid; cholesterol, cholesterol esters, and cholesterol hemisuccinate. Due to their excellent biocompatibility characteristics, phospholipids and combinations of phospholipids and poloxamers are particularly suitable for use in the stabilized dispersions disclosed herein.

Compatible nonionic detergents comprise: sorbitan esters including sorbitan trioleate (Spans™ 85), sorbitan sesquioleate, sorbitan monooleate, sorbitan monolaurate, polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monolaurate, and polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan monooleate, oleyl polyoxyethylene (2) ether, stearyl polyoxyethylene (2) ether, lauryl polyoxyethylene (4) ether, glycerol esters, and sucrose esters. Other suitable nonionic detergents can be easily identified using McCutcheon's Emulsifiers and Detergents (McPublishing Co., Glen Rock, N.J.). Preferred block copolymers include diblock and triblock copolymers of polyoxyethylene and polyoxypropylene, including poloxamer 188 (Pluronic® F₆₈), poloxamer 407 (Pluronic® F-127), and poloxamer 338. Ionic surfactants such as sodium sulfosuccinate, and fatty acid soaps may also be utilized. In preferred embodiments, the microstructures may comprise oleic acid or its alkali salt.

In addition to the aforementioned surfactants, cationic surfactants or lipids are preferred especially in the case of delivery of an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof). Examples of suitable cationic lipids include: DOTMA, N-[-(2,3-dioleyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium-chloride; DOTAP,1,2-dioleyloxy-3-(trimethylammonio)propane; and DOTB, 1,2-dioleyl-3-(4′-trimethylammonio)butanoyl-sn-glycerol. Polycationic amino acids such as polylysine, and polyarginine are also contemplated.

For the spraying process, such spraying methods as rotary atomization, pressure atomization and two-fluid atomization can be used. Examples of the devices used in these processes include “Parubisu [phonetic rendering] Mini-Spray GA-32” and “Parubisu Spray Drier DL-41”, manufactured by Yamato Chemical Co., or “Spray Drier CL-8,” “Spray Drier L-8,” “Spray Drier FL-12,” “Spray Drier FL-16” or “Spray Drier FL-20,” manufactured by Okawara Kakoki Co., can be used for the method of spraying using rotary-disk atomizer.

While no particular restrictions are placed on the gas used to dry the sprayed material, it is recommended to use air, nitrogen gas or an inert gas. The temperature of the inlet of the gas used to dry the sprayed materials such that it does not cause heat deactivation of the sprayed material. The range of temperatures may vary between about 50° C. to about 200° C., preferably between about 50° C. and 100° C. The temperature of the outlet gas used to dry the sprayed material, may vary between about 0° C. and about 150° C., preferably between 0° C. and 90° C., and even more preferably between 0° C. and 60° C.

The spray drying is done under conditions that result in substantially amorphous powder of homogeneous constitution having a particle size that is respirable, a low moisture content and flow characteristics that allow for ready aerosolization. Preferably the particle size of the resulting powder is such that more than about 98% of the mass is in particles having a diameter of about 10 μm or less with about 90% of the mass being in particles having a diameter less than 5 μm. Alternatively, about 95% of the mass will have particles with a diameter of less than 10 μm with about 80% of the mass of the particles having a diameter of less than 5 μm.

The dispersible pharmaceutical-based dry powders that include the iRNA preparation may optionally be combined with pharmaceutical carriers or excipients which are suitable for respiratory and pulmonary administration. Such carriers may serve simply as bulking agents when it is desired to reduce the iRNA concentration in the powder which is being delivered to a patient, but may also serve to enhance the stability of the iRNA compositions and to improve the dispersibility of the powder within a powder dispersion device in order to provide more efficient and reproducible delivery of the iRNA and to improve handling characteristics of the iRNA such as flowability and consistency to facilitate manufacturing and powder filling.

Such carrier materials may be combined with the drug prior to spray drying, i.e., by adding the carrier material to the purified bulk solution. In that way, the carrier particles will be formed simultaneously with the drug particles to produce a homogeneous powder. Alternatively, the carriers may be separately prepared in a dry powder form and combined with the dry powder drug by blending. The powder carriers will usually be crystalline (to avoid water absorption), but might in some cases be amorphous or mixtures of crystalline and amorphous. The size of the carrier particles may be selected to improve the flowability of the drug powder, typically being in the range from 25 μm to 100 μm. A preferred carrier material is crystalline lactose having a size in the above-stated range.

Powders prepared by any of the above methods will be collected from the spray dryer in a conventional manner for subsequent use. For use as pharmaceuticals and other purposes, it will frequently be desirable to disrupt any agglomerates which may have formed by screening or other conventional techniques. For pharmaceutical uses, the dry powder formulations will usually be measured into a single dose, and the single dose sealed into a package. Such packages are particularly useful for dispersion in dry powder inhalers, as described in detail below. Alternatively, the powders may be packaged in multiple-dose containers.

Methods for spray drying hydrophobic and other drugs and components are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,000,888; 5,026,550; 4,670,419, 4,540,602; and 4,486,435. Bloch and Speison (1983) Pharm. Acta Helv 58:14-22 teaches spray drying of hydrochlorothiazide and chlorthalidone (lipophilic drugs) and a hydrophilic adjuvant (pentaerythritol) in azeotropic solvents of dioxane-water and 2-ethoxyethanol-water. A number of Japanese Patent application Abstracts relate to spray drying of hydrophilic-hydrophobic product combinations, including JP 806766; JP 7242568; JP 7101884; JP 7101883; JP 71018982; JP 7101881; and JP 4036233. Other foreign patent publications relevant to spray drying hydrophilic-hydrophobic product combinations include FR 2594693; DE 2209477; and WO 88/07870.

Lyophilization.

An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) preparation can be made by lyophilization. Lyophilization is a freeze-drying process in which water is sublimed from the composition after it is frozen. The particular advantage associated with the lyophilization process is that biologicals and pharmaceuticals that are relatively unstable in an aqueous solution can be dried without elevated temperatures (thereby eliminating the adverse thermal effects), and then stored in a dry state where there are few stability problems. With respect to the instant invention such techniques are particularly compatible with the incorporation of nucleic acids in perforated microstructures without compromising physiological activity. Methods for providing lyophilized particulates are known to those of skill in the art and it would clearly not require undue experimentation to provide dispersion compatible microstructures in accordance with the teachings herein. Accordingly, to the extent that lyophilization processes may be used to provide microstructures having the desired porosity and size, they are conformance with the teachings herein and are expressly contemplated as being within the scope of the instant invention.

Targeting

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNAs. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention.

In some embodiments, an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) is targeted to a particular cell. For example, a liposome or particle or other structure that includes a iRNA can also include a targeting moiety that recognizes a specific molecule on a target cell. The targeting moiety can be a molecule with a specific affinity for a target cell. Targeting moieties can include antibodies directed against a protein found on the surface of a target cell, or the ligand or a receptor-binding portion of a ligand for a molecule found on the surface of a target cell. For example, the targeting moiety can recognize a cancer-specific antigen (e.g., CA15-3, CA19-9, CEA, or HER2/neu.) or a viral antigen, thus delivering the iRNA to a cancer cell or a virus-infected cell. Exemplary targeting moieties include antibodies (such as IgM, IgG, IgA, IgD, and the like, or a functional portions thereof), ligands for cell surface receptors (e.g., ectodomains thereof).

Table 3 provides a number of antigens which can be used to target selected cells.

TABLE 3 ANTIGEN Exemplary tumor tissue CEA (carcinoembryonic colon, breast, lung antigen) PSA (prostate specific prostate cancer antigen) CA-125 ovarian cancer CA 15-3 breast cancer CA 19-9 breast cancer HER2/neu breast cancer α-feto protein testicular cancer, hepatic cancer β-HCG (human chorionic testicular cancer, gonadotropin) choriocarcinoma MUC-1 breast cancer Estrogen receptor breast cancer, uterine cancer Progesterone receptor breast cancer, uterine cancer EGFr (epidermal growth bladder cancer factor receptor)

In one embodiment, the targeting moiety is attached to a liposome. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,245,427 describes a method for targeting a liposome using a protein or peptide. In another example, a cationic lipid component of the liposome is derivatized with a targeting moiety. For example, WO 96/37194 describes converting N-glutaryldioleoylphosphatidyl ethanolamine to a N-hydroxysuccinimide activated ester. The product was then coupled to an RGD peptide.

The loss of heterozygosity (LOH) can result in hemizygosity for sequence, e.g., genes, in the area of LOH. This can result in a significant genetic difference between normal and disease-state cells, e.g., cancer cells, and provides a useful difference between normal and disease-state cells, e.g., cancer cells. This difference can arise because a gene or other sequence is heterozygous in euploid cells but is hemizygous in cells having LOH. The regions of LOH will often include a gene, the loss of which promotes unwanted proliferation, e.g., a tumor suppressor gene, and other sequences including, e.g., other genes, in some cases a gene which is essential for normal function, e.g., growth. Methods of the invention rely, in part, on the specific cleavage or silencing of one allele of an essential gene with an iRNA agent of the invention. The iRNA agent is selected such that it targets the single allele of the essential gene found in the cells having LOH but does not silence the other allele, which is present in cells which do not show LOH. In essence, it discriminates between the two alleles, preferentially silencing the selected allele. In essence polymorphisms, e.g., SNPs of essential genes that are affected by LOH, are used as a target for a disorder characterized by cells having LOH, e.g., cancer cells having LOH.

E.g., one of ordinary skill in the art can identify essential genes which are in proximity to tumor suppressor genes, and which are within a LOH region which includes the tumor suppressor gene. The gene encoding the large subunit of human RNA polymerase II, POLR2A, a gene located in close proximity to the tumor suppressor gene p53, is such a gene. It frequently occurs within a region of LOH in cancer cells. Other genes that occur within LOH regions and are lost in many cancer cell types include the group comprising replication protein A 70-kDa subunit, replication protein A 32-kD, ribonucleotide reductase, thymidilate synthase, TATA associated factor 2H, ribosomal protein S14, eukaryotic initiation factor 5A, alanyl tRNA synthetase, cysteinyl tRNA synthetase, NaK ATPase, alpha-1 subunit, and transferrin receptor.

Accordingly, the invention features, a method of treating a disorder characterized by LOH, e.g., cancer. The method includes:

optionally, determining the genotype of the allele of a gene in the region of LOH and preferably determining the genotype of both alleles of the gene in a normal cell;

providing an iRNA agent which preferentially cleaves or silences the allele found in the LOH cells;

administering the iRNA to the subject,

thereby treating the disorder.

The invention also includes a iRNA agent disclosed herein, e.g, an iRNA agent which can preferentially silence, e.g., cleave, one allele of a polymorphic gene

In another aspect, the invention provides a method of cleaving or silencing more than one gene with an iRNA agent. In these embodiments the iRNA agent is selected so that it has sufficient homology to a sequence found in more than one gene. For example, the sequence AAGCTGGCCCTGGACATGGAGAT (SEQ ID NO:6736) is conserved between mouse lamin B1, lamin B2, keratin complex 2-gene 1 and lamin A/C. Thus an iRNA agent targeted to this sequence would effectively silence the entire collection of genes.

The invention also includes an iRNA agent disclosed herein, which can silence more than one gene.

Route of Delivery

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. A composition that includes a iRNA can be delivered to a subject by a variety of routes. Exemplary routes include: intravenous, topical, rectal, anal, vaginal, nasal, pulmonary, ocular.

The iRNA molecules of the invention can be incorporated into pharmaceutical compositions suitable for administration. Such compositions typically include one or more species of iRNA and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. As used herein the language “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” is intended to include any and all solvents, dispersion media, coatings, antibacterial and antifungal agents, isotonic and absorption delaying agents, and the like, compatible with pharmaceutical administration. The use of such media and agents for pharmaceutically active substances is well known in the art. Except insofar as any conventional media or agent is incompatible with the active compound, use thereof in the compositions is contemplated. Supplementary active compounds can also be incorporated into the compositions.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be administered in a number of ways depending upon whether local or systemic treatment is desired and upon the area to be treated. Administration may be topical (including ophthalmic, vaginal, rectal, intranasal, transdermal), oral or parenteral. Parenteral administration includes intravenous drip, subcutaneous, intraperitoneal or intramuscular injection, or intrathecal or intraventricular administration.

The route and site of administration may be chosen to enhance targeting. For example, to target muscle cells, intramuscular injection into the muscles of interest would be a logical choice. Lung cells might be targeted by administering the iRNA in aerosol form. The vascular endothelial cells could be targeted by coating a balloon catheter with the iRNA and mechanically introducing the DNA.

Formulations for topical administration may include transdermal patches, ointments, lotions, creams, gels, drops, suppositories, sprays, liquids and powders. Conventional pharmaceutical carriers, aqueous, powder or oily bases, thickeners and the like may be necessary or desirable. Coated condoms, gloves and the like may also be useful.

Compositions for oral administration include powders or granules, suspensions or solutions in water, syrups, elixirs or non-aqueous media, tablets, capsules, lozenges, or troches. In the case of tablets, carriers that can be used include lactose, sodium citrate and salts of phosphoric acid. Various disintegrants such as starch, and lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc, are commonly used in tablets. For oral administration in capsule form, useful diluents are lactose and high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the nucleic acid compositions can be combined with emulsifying and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetening and/or flavoring agents can be added.

Compositions for intrathecal or intraventricular administration may include sterile aqueous solutions which may also contain buffers, diluents and other suitable additives.

Formulations for parenteral administration may include sterile aqueous solutions which may also contain buffers, diluents and other suitable additives. Intraventricular injection may be facilitated by an intraventricular catheter, for example, attached to a reservoir. For intravenous use, the total concentration of solutes should be controlled to render the preparation isotonic.

For ocular administration, ointments or droppable liquids may be delivered by ocular delivery systems known to the art such as applicators or eye droppers. Such compositions can include mucomimetics such as hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose or poly(vinyl alcohol), preservatives such as sorbic acid, EDTA or benzylchronium chloride, and the usual quantities of diluents and/or carriers.

Topical Delivery

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. In a preferred embodiment, an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) is delivered to a subject via topical administration. “Topical administration” refers to the delivery to a subject by contacting the formulation directly to a surface of the subject. The most common form of topical delivery is to the skin, but a composition disclosed herein can also be directly applied to other surfaces of the body, e.g., to the eye, a mucous membrane, to surfaces of a body cavity or to an internal surface. As mentioned above, the most common topical delivery is to the skin. The term encompasses several routes of administration including, but not limited to, topical and transdermal. These modes of administration typically include penetration of the skin's permeability barrier and efficient delivery to the target tissue or stratum. Topical administration can be used as a means to penetrate the epidermis and dermis and ultimately achieve systemic delivery of the composition. Topical administration can also be used as a means to selectively deliver oligonucleotides to the epidermis or dermis of a subject, or to specific strata thereof, or to an underlying tissue.

The term “skin,” as used herein, refers to the epidermis and/or dermis of an animal. Mammalian skin consists of two major, distinct layers. The outer layer of the skin is called the epidermis. The epidermis is comprised of the stratum corneum, the stratum granulosum, the stratum spinosum, and the stratum basale, with the stratum corneum being at the surface of the skin and the stratum basale being the deepest portion of the epidermis. The epidermis is between 50 μm and 0.2 mm thick, depending on its location on the body.

Beneath the epidermis is the dermis, which is significantly thicker than the epidermis. The dermis is primarily composed of collagen in the form of fibrous bundles. The collagenous bundles provide support for, inter alia, blood vessels, lymph capillaries, glands, nerve endings and immunologically active cells.

One of the major functions of the skin as an organ is to regulate the entry of substances into the body. The principal permeability barrier of the skin is provided by the stratum corneum, which is formed from many layers of cells in various states of differentiation. The spaces between cells in the stratum corneum is filled with different lipids arranged in lattice-like formations that provide seals to further enhance the skins permeability barrier.

The permeability barrier provided by the skin is such that it is largely impermeable to molecules having molecular weight greater than about 750 Da. For larger molecules to cross the skin's permeability barrier, mechanisms other than normal osmosis must be used.

Several factors determine the permeability of the skin to administered agents. These factors include the characteristics of the treated skin, the characteristics of the delivery agent, interactions between both the drug and delivery agent and the drug and skin, the dosage of the drug applied, the form of treatment, and the post treatment regimen. To selectively target the epidermis and dermis, it is sometimes possible to formulate a composition that comprises one or more penetration enhancers that will enable penetration of the drug to a preselected stratum.

Transdermal delivery is a valuable route for the administration of lipid soluble therapeutics. The dermis is more permeable than the epidermis and therefore absorption is much more rapid through abraded, burned or denuded skin. Inflammation and other physiologic conditions that increase blood flow to the skin also enhance transdermal adsorption. Absorption via this route may be enhanced by the use of an oily vehicle (inunction) or through the use of one or more penetration enhancers. Other effective ways to deliver a composition disclosed herein via the transdermal route include hydration of the skin and the use of controlled release topical patches. The transdermal route provides a potentially effective means to deliver a composition disclosed herein for systemic and/or local therapy.

In addition, iontophoresis (transfer of ionic solutes through biological membranes under the influence of an electric field) (Lee et al., Critical Reviews in Therapeutic Drug Carrier Systems, 1991, p. 163), phonophoresis or sonophoresis (use of ultrasound to enhance the absorption of various therapeutic agents across biological membranes, notably the skin and the cornea) (Lee et al., Critical Reviews in Therapeutic Drug Carrier Systems, 1991, p. 166), and optimization of vehicle characteristics relative to dose position and retention at the site of administration (Lee et al., Critical Reviews in Therapeutic Drug Carrier Systems, 1991, p. 168) may be useful methods for enhancing the transport of topically applied compositions across skin and mucosal sites.

The compositions and methods provided may also be used to examine the function of various proteins and genes in vitro in cultured or preserved dermal tissues and in animals. The invention can be thus applied to examine the function of any gene. The methods of the invention can also be used therapeutically or prophylactically. For example, for the treatment of animals that are known or suspected to suffer from diseases such as psoriasis, lichen planus, toxic epidermal necrolysis, ertythema multiforme, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, Paget's disease, Kaposi's sarcoma, pulmonary fibrosis, Lyme disease and viral, fungal and bacterial infections of the skin.

Pulmonary Delivery

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. A composition that includes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) can be administered to a subject by pulmonary delivery. Pulmonary delivery compositions can be delivered by inhalation by the patient of a dispersion so that the composition, preferably iRNA, within the dispersion can reach the lung where it can be readily absorbed through the alveolar region directly into blood circulation. Pulmonary delivery can be effective both for systemic delivery and for localized delivery to treat diseases of the lungs.

Pulmonary delivery can be achieved by different approaches, including the use of nebulized, aerosolized, micellular and dry powder-based formulations. Delivery can be achieved with liquid nebulizers, aerosol-based inhalers, and dry powder dispersion devices. Metered-dose devices are preferred. One of the benefits of using an atomizer or inhaler is that the potential for contamination is minimized because the devices are self contained. Dry powder dispersion devices, for example, deliver drugs that may be readily formulated as dry powders. A iRNA composition may be stably stored as lyophilized or spray-dried powders by itself or in combination with suitable powder carriers. The delivery of a composition for inhalation can be mediated by a dosing timing element which can include a timer, a dose counter, time measuring device, or a time indicator which when incorporated into the device enables dose tracking, compliance monitoring, and/or dose triggering to a patient during administration of the aerosol medicament.

The term “powder” means a composition that consists of finely dispersed solid particles that are free flowing and capable of being readily dispersed in an inhalation device and subsequently inhaled by a subject so that the particles reach the lungs to permit penetration into the alveoli. Thus, the powder is said to be “respirable.” Preferably the average particle size is less than about 10 μm in diameter preferably with a relatively uniform spheroidal shape distribution. More preferably the diameter is less than about 7.5 μm and most preferably less than about 5.0 μm. Usually the particle size distribution is between about 0.1 μm and about 5 μm in diameter, particularly about 0.3 μm to about 5 μm.

The term “dry” means that the composition has a moisture content below about 10% by weight (% w) water, usually below about 5% w and preferably less it than about 3% w. A dry composition can be such that the particles are readily dispersible in an inhalation device to form an aerosol.

The term “therapeutically effective amount” is the amount present in the composition that is needed to provide the desired level of drug in the subject to be treated to give the anticipated physiological response.

The term “physiologically effective amount” is that amount delivered to a subject to give the desired palliative or curative effect.

The term “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means that the carrier can be taken into the lungs with no significant adverse toxicological effects on the lungs.

The types of pharmaceutical excipients that are useful as carrier include stabilizers such as human serum albumin (HSA), bulking agents such as carbohydrates, amino acids and polypeptides; pH adjusters or buffers; salts such as sodium chloride; and the like. These carriers may be in a crystalline or amorphous form or may be a mixture of the two.

Bulking agents that are particularly valuable include compatible carbohydrates, polypeptides, amino acids or combinations thereof. Suitable carbohydrates include monosaccharides such as galactose, D-mannose, sorbose, and the like; disaccharides, such as lactose, trehalose, and the like; cyclodextrins, such as 2-hydroxypropyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin; and polysaccharides, such as raffinose, maltodextrins, dextrans, and the like; alditols, such as mannitol, xylitol, and the like. A preferred group of carbohydrates includes lactose, threhalose, raffinose maltodextrins, and mannitol. Suitable polypeptides include aspartame. Amino acids include alanine and glycine, with glycine being preferred.

Additives, which are minor components of the composition of this invention, may be included for conformational stability during spray drying and for improving dispersibility of the powder. These additives include hydrophobic amino acids such as tryptophan, tyrosine, leucine, phenylalanine, and the like.

Suitable pH adjusters or buffers include organic salts prepared from organic acids and bases, such as sodium citrate, sodium ascorbate, and the like; sodium citrate is preferred.

Pulmonary administration of a micellar iRNA formulation may be achieved through metered dose spray devices with propellants such as tetrafluoroethane, heptafluoroethane, dimethylfluoropropane, tetrafluoropropane, butane, isobutane, dimethyl ether and other non-CFC and CFC propellants.

Oral or Nasal Delivery

For ease of exposition the formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. Both the oral and nasal membranes offer advantages over other routes of administration. For example, drugs administered through these membranes have a rapid onset of action, provide therapeutic plasma levels, avoid first pass effect of hepatic metabolism, and avoid exposure of the drug to the hostile gastrointestinal (GI) environment. Additional advantages include easy access to the membrane sites so that the drug can be applied, localized and removed easily.

In oral delivery, compositions can be targeted to a surface of the oral cavity, e.g., to sublingual mucosa which includes the membrane of ventral surface of the tongue and the floor of the mouth or the buccal mucosa which constitutes the lining of the cheek. The sublingual mucosa is relatively permeable thus giving rapid absorption and acceptable bioavailability of many drugs. Further, the sublingual mucosa is convenient, acceptable and easily accessible.

The ability of molecules to permeate through the oral mucosa appears to be related to molecular size, lipid solubility and peptide protein ionization. Small molecules, less than 1000 daltons appear to cross mucosa rapidly. As molecular size increases, the permeability decreases rapidly. Lipid soluble compounds are more permeable than non-lipid soluble molecules. Maximum absorption occurs when molecules are un-ionized or neutral in electrical charges. Therefore charged molecules present the biggest challenges to absorption through the oral mucosae.

A pharmaceutical composition of iRNA may also be administered to the buccal cavity of a human being by spraying into the cavity, without inhalation, from a metered dose spray dispenser, a mixed micellar pharmaceutical formulation as described above and a propellant. In one embodiment, the dispenser is first shaken prior to spraying the pharmaceutical formulation and propellant into the buccal cavity.

Devices

For ease of exposition the devices, formulations, compositions and methods in this section are discussed largely with regard to unmodified iRNA agents. It should be understood, however, that these devices, formulations, compositions and methods can be practiced with other iRNA agents, e.g., modified iRNA agents, and such practice is within the invention. An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) can be disposed on or in a device, e.g., a device which implanted or otherwise placed in a subject. Exemplary devices include devices which are introduced into the vasculature, e.g., devices inserted into the lumen of a vascular tissue, or which devices themselves form a part of the vasculature, including stents, catheters, heart valves, and other vascular devices. These devices, e.g., catheters or stents, can be placed in the vasculature of the lung, heart, or leg.

Other devices include non-vascular devices, e.g., devices implanted in the peritoneum, or in organ or glandular tissue, e.g., artificial organs. The device can release a therapeutic substance in addition to a iRNA, e.g., a device can release insulin.

Other devices include artificial joints, e.g., hip joints, and other orthopedic implants.

In one embodiment, unit doses or measured doses of a composition that includes iRNA are dispensed by an implanted device. The device can include a sensor that monitors a parameter within a subject. For example, the device can include pump, e.g., and, optionally, associated electronics.

Tissue, e.g., cells or organs can be treated with An iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) ex vivo and then administered or implanted in a subject.

The tissue can be autologous, allogeneic, or xenogeneic tissue. E.g., tissue can be treated to reduce graft v. host disease. In other embodiments, the tissue is allogeneic and the tissue is treated to treat a disorder characterized by unwanted gene expression in that tissue. E.g., tissue, e.g., hematopoietic cells, e.g., bone marrow hematopoietic cells, can be treated to inhibit unwanted cell proliferation.

Introduction of treated tissue, whether autologous or transplant, can be combined with other therapies.

In some implementations, the iRNA treated cells are insulated from other cells, e.g., by a semi-permeable porous barrier that prevents the cells from leaving the implant, but enables molecules from the body to reach the cells and molecules produced by the cells to enter the body.

In one embodiment, the porous barrier is formed from alginate.

In one embodiment, a contraceptive device is coated with or contains an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof). Exemplary devices include condoms, diaphragms, IUD (implantable uterine devices, sponges, vaginal sheaths, and birth control devices. In one embodiment, the iRNA is chosen to inactive sperm or egg. In another embodiment, the iRNA is chosen to be complementary to a viral or pathogen RNA, e.g., an RNA of an STD. In some instances, the iRNA composition can include a spermicide.

Dosage

In one aspect, the invention features a method of administering an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, to a subject (e.g., a human subject). The method includes administering a unit dose of the iRNA agent, e.g., a sRNA agent, e.g., double stranded sRNA agent that (a) the double-stranded part is 19-25 nucleotides (nt) long, preferably 21-23 nt, (b) is complementary to a target RNA (e.g., an endogenous or pathogen target RNA), and, optionally, (c) includes at least one 3′ overhang 1-5 nucleotide long. In one embodiment, the unit dose is less than 1.4 mg per kg of bodyweight, or less than 10, 5, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.05, 0.01, 0.005, 0.001, 0.0005, 0.0001, 0.00005 or 0.00001 mg per kg of bodyweight, and less than 200 nmole of RNA agent (e.g. about 4.4×10¹⁶ copies) per kg of bodyweight, or less than 1500, 750, 300, 150, 75, 15, 7.5, 1.5, 0.75, 0.15, 0.075, 0.015, 0.0075, 0.0015, 0.00075, 0.00015 nmole of RNA agent per kg of bodyweight.

The defined amount can be an amount effective to treat or prevent a disease or disorder, e.g., a disease or disorder associated with the target RNA. The unit dose, for example, can be administered by injection (e.g., intravenous or intramuscular), an inhaled dose, or a topical application. Particularly preferred dosages are less than 2, 1, or 0.1 mg/kg of body weight.

In a preferred embodiment, the unit dose is administered less frequently than once a day, e.g., less than every 2, 4, 8 or 30 days. In another embodiment, the unit dose is not administered with a frequency (e.g., not a regular frequency). For example, the unit dose may be administered a single time.

In one embodiment, the effective dose is administered with other traditional therapeutic modalities. In one embodiment, the subject has a viral infection and the modality is an antiviral agent other than an iRNA agent, e.g., other than a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent. In another embodiment, the subject has atherosclerosis and the effective dose of an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, is administered in combination with, e.g., after surgical intervention, e.g., angioplasty.

In one embodiment, a subject is administered an initial dose and one or more maintenance doses of an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof). The maintenance dose or doses are generally lower than the initial dose, e.g., one-half less of the initial dose. A maintenance regimen can include treating the subject with a dose or doses ranging from 0.01 μg to 1.4 mg/kg of body weight per day, e.g., 10, 1, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001, or 0.00001 mg per kg of bodyweight per day. The maintenance doses are preferably administered no more than once every 5, 10, or 30 days. Further, the treatment regimen may last for a period of time which will vary depending upon the nature of the particular disease, its severity and the overall condition of the patient. In preferred embodiments the dosage may be delivered no more than once per day, e.g., no more than once per 24, 36, 48, or more hours, e.g., no more than once for every 5 or 8 days. Following treatment, the patient can be monitored for changes in his condition and for alleviation of the symptoms of the disease state. The dosage of the compound may either be increased in the event the patient does not respond significantly to current dosage levels, or the dose may be decreased if an alleviation of the symptoms of the disease state is observed, if the disease state has been ablated, or if undesired side-effects are observed.

The effective dose can be administered in a single dose or in two or more doses, as desired or considered appropriate under the specific circumstances. If desired to facilitate repeated or frequent infusions, implantation of a delivery device, e.g., a pump, semi-permanent stent (e.g., intravenous, intraperitoneal, intracisternal or intracapsular), or reservoir may be advisable.

In one embodiment, the iRNA agent pharmaceutical composition includes a plurality of iRNA agent species. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent species has sequences that are non-overlapping and non-adjacent to another species with respect to a naturally occurring target sequence. In another embodiment, the plurality of iRNA agent species is specific for different naturally occurring target genes. In another embodiment, the iRNA agent is allele specific.

In some cases, a patient is treated with a iRNA agent in conjunction with other therapeutic modalities. For example, a patient being treated for a viral disease, e.g. an HIV associated disease (e.g., AIDS), may be administered a iRNA agent specific for a target gene essential to the virus in conjunction with a known antiviral agent (e.g., a protease inhibitor or reverse transcriptase inhibitor). In another example, a patient being treated for cancer may be administered a iRNA agent specific for a target essential for tumor cell proliferation in conjunction with a chemotherapy.

Following successful treatment, it may be desirable to have the patient undergo maintenance therapy to prevent the recurrence of the disease state, wherein the compound of the invention is administered in maintenance doses, ranging from 0.01 μg to 100 g per kg of body weight (see U.S. Pat. No. 6,107,094).

The concentration of the iRNA agent composition is an amount sufficient to be effective in treating or preventing a disorder or to regulate a physiological condition in humans. The concentration or amount of iRNA agent administered will depend on the parameters determined for the agent and the method of administration, e.g. nasal, buccal, pulmonary. For example, nasal formulations tend to require much lower concentrations of some ingredients in order to avoid irritation or burning of the nasal passages. It is sometimes desirable to dilute an oral formulation up to 10-100 times in order to provide a suitable nasal formulation.

Certain factors may influence the dosage required to effectively treat a subject, including but not limited to the severity of the disease or disorder, previous treatments, the general health and/or age of the subject, and other diseases present. Moreover, treatment of a subject with a therapeutically effective amount of an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, (e.g., a precursor, e.g., a larger iRNA agent which can be processed into a sRNA agent, or a DNA which encodes an iRNA agent, e.g., a double-stranded iRNA agent, or sRNA agent, or precursor thereof) can include a single treatment or, preferably, can include a series of treatments. It will also be appreciated that the effective dosage of a iRNA agent such as a sRNA agent used for treatment may increase or decrease over the course of a particular treatment. Changes in dosage may result and become apparent from the results of diagnostic assays as described herein. For example, the subject can be monitored after administering a iRNA agent composition. Based on information from the monitoring, an additional amount of the iRNA agent composition can be administered.

Dosing is dependent on severity and responsiveness of the disease condition to be treated, with the course of treatment lasting from several days to several months, or until a cure is effected or a diminution of disease state is achieved. Optimal dosing schedules can be calculated from measurements of drug accumulation in the body of the patient. Persons of ordinary skill can easily determine optimum dosages, dosing methodologies and repetition rates. Optimum dosages may vary depending on the relative potency of individual compounds, and can generally be estimated based on EC50s found to be effective in in vitro and in vivo animal models. In some embodiments, the animal models include transgenic animals that express a human gene, e.g. a gene that produces a target RNA. The transgenic animal can be deficient for the corresponding endogenous RNA. In another embodiment, the composition for testing includes a iRNA agent that is complementary, at least in an internal region, to a sequence that is conserved between the target RNA in the animal model and the target RNA in a human.

EXAMPLES Example 1: Inhibition of Endogenous ApoM Gene Expression in Mice

Apolipoprotein M (ApoM) is a human apolipoprotein predominantly present in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in plasma. ApoM is reported to be expressed exclusively in liver and in kidney (Xu N et al., Biochem J Biol Chem 1999 Oct. 29; 274(44):31286-90). Mouse ApoM is a 21kD membrane associated protein, and, in serum, the protein is associated with HDL particles. ApoM gene expression is regulated by the transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (Hnf-1α), as Hnf-1α^(−/−) mice are ApoM deficient. In humans, mutations in the HNF-1 alpha gene represent a common cause of maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY).

A variety of test iRNAs were synthesized to target the mouse ApoM gene. This gene was chosen in part because of its high expression levels and exclusive activity in the liver and kidney.

Three different classes of dsRNA agents were synthesized, each class having different modifications and features at the 5′ and 3′ ends, see Table 4.

Class I dsRNAs consisted of 21 nucleotide paired sense and antisense strands. The sense and antisense strands were each phosphorylated at their 5′ ends. The double stranded region was 19 nucleotides long and consisted of ribonucleotides. The 3′ end of each strand created a two nucleotide overhang consisting of two deoxyribonucleotide thymidines. See constructs #1-4 in Table 4.

Class II dsRNAs were also 21 nucleotides long, with a 19 nucleotide double strand region. The sense and antisense strands were each phosphorylated at their 5′ ends. The three 3′ terminal nucleotides of the sense and antisense strands were phosphorothioate deoxyribonucleotides, and the two terminal phosphorothioate thymidines were unpaired, creating a 3′ overhang region at each end of the iRNA molecule. See constructs 11, 13, 15, and 17 in Table 4.

Class III dsRNAs included a 23 ribonucleotide antisense strand and a 21 ribonucleotide sense strand, to form a construct having a blunt 5′ and a 3′ overhang region. See constructs 19, 21, 23, and 25 in Table 4.

Within each of the three classes of iRNAs, the four dsRNA molecules were designed to target four different regions of the ApoM transcript. dsRNAs 1, 11, and 19 targeted the 5′ end of the open reading frame (ORF). dsRNAs 2, 13, and 21, and 3, 15, and 23, targeted two internal regions (one 5′ proximal and one 3′ proximal) of the ORF, and the 4, 17, and 25 iRNA constructs targeted to a region of the 3′ untranslated sequence (3′ UTS) of the ApoM mRNA. This is summarized in Table 5.

CD1 mice (6-8 weeks old, ˜35 g) were administered one of the test iRNAs in PBS solution. Two hundred micrograms of iRNA in a volume of solution equal to 10% body weight (˜5.7 mg iRNA/kg mouse) was administered by the method of high pressure tail vein injection, over a 10-20 sec. time interval. After a 24h recovery period, a second injection was performed using the same dose and mode of administration as the first injection, and following another 24h, a third and final injection was administered, also using the same dose and mode of administration. After a final 24h recovery, the mouse was sacrificed, serum was collected and the liver and kidney harvested to assay for an affect on ApoM gene expression. Expression was monitored by quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot analyses. This experiment was repeated for each of the iRNAs listed in table 4.

Class I iRNAs did not alter ApoM RNA levels in mice, as indicated by quantitative RT-PCR. This is in contrast to the effect of these iRNAs in cultured HepG2 cells. Cells cotransfected with a plasmid expressing exogenous ApoM RNA under a CMV promoter and a class I iRNA demonstrated a 25% or greater reduction in ApoM RNA concentrations as compared to control transfections. The iRNA molecules 1, 2 and 3 each caused a 75% decrease in exogenous ApoM mRNA levels.

Class II iRNAs reduced liver and kidney ApoM mRNA levels by ˜30-85%. The iRNA molecule “13” elicited the most dramatic reduction in mRNA levels; quantitative RT-PCR indicated a decrease of about 85% in liver tissue. Serum ApoM protein levels were also reduced as was evidenced by Western blot analysis. The iRNAs 11, 13 and 15, reduced protein levels by about 50%, while iRNA 17 had the mildest effect, reducing levels only by ˜15-20%. Class III iRNAs (constructs 19, 21, and 23) reduced serum Apo levels by ˜40-50%.

To determine the effect of dosage on iRNA mediated ApoM inhibition, the experiment described above was repeated with three injections of 50 μg iRNA “11” (˜1.4 mg iRNA/kg mouse). This lower dosage of iRNA resulted in a reduction of serum ApoM levels of about 50%. This is compared with the reduction seen with the 200m injections, which reduced serum levels by 25-45%. These results indicated the lower dosage amounts of iRNAs were effective.

In an effort to increase iRNA uptake by cells, iRNAs were precomplexed with lipofectamine prior to tail vein injections. ApoM protein levels were about 50% of wildtype levels in mice injected with iRNA “11” when the molecules were preincubated with lipofectamine; ApoM levels were also about 50% of wildtype when mice were injected with iRNA “11” that was not precomplexed with lipofectamine.

These experiments revealed that modified iRNAs can greatly influence RNAi-mediated gene silencing. As demonstrated herein, modifications including phosphorothioate nucleotides are particularly effective at decreasing target protein levels.

Example 2: apoB Protein as a Therapeutic Target for Lipid-Based Diseases

Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is a candidate target gene for the development of novel therapies for lipid-based diseases.

Methods described herein can be used to evaluate the efficacy of a particular siRNA as a therapeutic tool for treating lipid metabolism disorders resulting elevated apoB levels. Use of siRNA duplexes to selectively bind and inactivate the target apoB mRNA is an approach totreat these disorders.

Two approaches:

i) Inhibition of apoB in ex-vivo models by transfecting siRNA duplexes homologous to human apoB mRNA in a human hepatoma cell line (Hep G2) and monitor the level of the protein and the RNA using the Western blotting and RT-PCR methods, respectively. siRNA molecules that efficiently inhibit apoB expression will be tested for similar effects in vivo.

ii) In vivo trials using an apoB transgenic mouse model (apoB100 Transgenic Mice, C57BL/6NTac-TgN (APOB100), Order Model #'s:1004-T (hemizygotes), B6 (control)). siRNA duplexes are designed to target apoB-100 or CETP/apoB double transgenic mice which express both cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and apoB. The effect of the siRNA on gene expression in vivo can be measured by monitoring the HDL/LDL cholesterol level in serum. The results of these experiments would indicate the therapeutic potential of siRNAs to treat lipid-based diseases, including hypercholesterolemia, HDL/LDL cholesterol imbalance, familial combined hyperlipidemia, and acquired hyperlipidemia.

Background

Fats, in the form of triglycerides, are ideal for energy storage because they are highly reduced and anhydrous. An adipocyte (or fat cell) consists of a nucleus, a cell membrane, and triglycerides, and its function is to store triglycerides.

The lipid portion of the human diet consists largely of triglycerides and cholesterol (and its esters). These must be emulsified and digested to be absorbed. Specifically, fats (triacylglycerols) are ingested. Bile (bile acids, salts, and cholesterol), which is made in the liver, is secreted by the gall bladder. Pancreatic lipase digests the triglycerides to fatty acids, and also digests di-, and mono-acylglycerols, which are absorbed by intestinal epithelial cells and then are resynthesized into triacylglycerols once inside the cells. These triglycerides and some cholesterols are combined with apolipoproteins to produce chylomicrons. Chylomicrons consist of approximately 95% triglycerides. The chylomicrons transport fatty acids to peripheral tissues. Any excess fat is stored in adipose tissue.

Lipid transport and clearance from the blood into cells, and from the cells into the blood and the liver, is mediated by the lipoprotein transport proteins. This class of approximately 17 proteins can be divided into three groups: Apolipoproteins, lipoprotein processing proteins, and lipoprotein receptors.

Apolipoproteins coat lipoprotein particles, and include the A-I, A-II, A-IV, B, CI, CII, CIII, D, E, Apo(a) proteins. Lipoprotein processing proteins include lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase, lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase and cholesterol ester transfer protein. Lipoprotein receptors include the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, chylomicron-remnant receptor (the LDL receptor like protein or LDL receptor related protein—LRP) and the scavenger receptor.

Lipoprotein Metabolism

Since the triglycerides, cholesterol esters, and cholesterol absorbed into the small intestine are not soluble in aqueous medium, they must be combined with suitable proteins (apolipoproteins) in order to prevent them from forming large oil droplets. The resulting lipoproteins undergo a type of metabolism as they pass through the bloodstream and certain organs (notably the liver).

Also synthesized in the liver is high density lipoprotein (HDL), which contains the apoproteins A-1, A-2, C-1, and D; HDL collects cholesterol from peripheral tissues and blood vessels and returns it to the liver. LDL is taken up by specific cell surface receptors into an endosome, which fuses with a lysosome where cholesterol ester is converted to free cholesterol. The apoproteins (including apo B-100) are digested to amino acids. The receptor protein is recycled to the cell membrane.

The free cholesterol formed by this process has two fates. First, it can move to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where it can inhibit HMG-CoA reductase, the synthesis of HMG-CoA reductase, and the synthesis of cell surface receptors for LDL. Also in the ER, cholesterol can speed up the degradation of HMG-CoA reductase. The free cholesterol can also be converted by acyl-CoA and acyl transferase (ACAT) to cholesterol esters, which form oil droplets.

ApoB is the major apolipoprotein of chylomicrons of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL, which carry most of the plasma triglyceride) and low density lipoprotein (LDL, which carry most of the plasma cholesterol). ApoB exists in human plasma in two isoforms, apoB-48 and apoB-100.

ApoB-100 is the major physiological ligand for the LDL receptor. The ApoB precursor has 4563 amino acids, and the mature apoB-100 has 4536 amino acid residues. The LDL-binding domain of ApoB-100 is proposed to be located between residues 3129 and 3532. ApoB-100 is synthesized in the liver and is required for the assembly of very low density lipoproteins VLDL and for the preparation of apoB-100 to transport triglycerides (TG) and cholesterol from the liver to other tissues. ApoB-100 does not interchange between lipoprotein particles, as do the other lipoproteins, and it is found in IDL and LDL particles. After the removal of apolipoproteins A, E and C, apoB is incorporation into VLDL by hepatocytes. ApoB-48 is present in chylomicrons and plays an essential role in the intestinal absorption of dietary fats. ApoB-48 is synthesized in the small intestine. It comprises the N-terminal 48% of apoB-100 and is produced by a posttranscriptional apoB-100 mRNA editing event at codon 2153 (C to U). This editing event is a product of the apoBEC-lb enzyme, which is expressed in the intestine. This editing event creates a stop codon instead of a glutamine codon, and therefore apoB-48, instead of apoB-100 is expressed in the intestine (apoB-100 is expressed in the liver).

There is also strong evidence that plasma apoB levels may be a better index of the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) than total or LDL cholesterol levels. Clinical studies have demonstrated the value of measuring apoB in hypertriglyceridemic, hypercholesterolemic and normalipidemic subjects.

Molecular Genetics of Lipid Metabolism in Both Humans and Induced Mutant Mouse Models

Elevated plasma levels of LDL and apoB are associated with a higher risk for atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, a leading cause of mortality. ApoB is the mandatory constituent of LDL particles. In addition to its role in lipoprotein metabolism, apoB has also been implicated as a factor in male infertility and fetal development. Furthermore, two quantitative trait loci regulating plasma apoB levels have been discovered, through the use of transgenic mouse models. Future experiments will facilitate the identification of human orthologous genes encoding regulators of plasma apoB levels. These loci are candidate therapeutic targets for human disorders characterized by altered plasma apoB levels. Such disorders include non-apoB linked hypobetalipoproteinemia and familial combined hyperlipidemia. The identification of these genetic loci would also reveal possible new pathways involved in the regulation of apoB secretion, potentially providing novel sites for pharmacological therapy.

Diseases and Clinical Pharmacology

Familial combined hyperlipemia (FCHL) affects an estimated one in 10 Americans. FCHL can cause premature heart disease.

Familial Hypercholesterolemia (High Level of Apo B)

A common genetic disorder of lipid metabolism. Familial hypercholesterolemia is characterized by elevated serum TC in association with xanthelasma, tendon and tuberous xanthomas, accelerated atherosclerosis, and early death from myocardial infarction (MI). It is caused by absent or defective LDL cell receptors, resulting in delayed LDL clearance, an increase in plasma LDL levels, and an accumulation of LDL cholesterol in macrophages over joints and pressure points, and in blood vessels.

Atherosclerosis (High Level of Apo B)

Atherosclerosis develops as a deposition of cholesterol and fat in the arterial wall due to disturbances in lipid transport and clearance from the blood into cells and from the cells to blood and the liver.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that elevation of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and apoB-100 promote human atherosclerosis. Similarly, decreased levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) are associated with the development of atherosclerosis.

ApoB may be factor in the genetic cause of high cholesterol.

The Risk of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) (High Level of Apo B)

Cardiovascular disease, including coronary heart disease and stroke, is a leading cause of death and disability. The major risk factors include age, gender, elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol blood levels, decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, cigarette smoking, hypertension, and diabetes. Emerging risk factors include elevated lipoprotein (a), remnant lipoproteins, and C reactive protein. Dietary intake, physical activity and genetics also impact cardiovascular risk. Hypertension and age are the major risk factors for stroke.

Abetalipoproteinemia, an inherited human disease characterized by a near-complete absence of apoB-containing lipoproteins in the plasma, is caused by mutations in the gene for microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP).

Model for Human Atherosclerosis (Lipoprotein a Transgenic Mouse)

Numerous studies have demonstrated that an elevated plasma level of lipoprotein(a) (Lp(a)) is a major independent risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD). Current therapies, however, have little or no effect on apo(a) levels and the homology between apo(a) and plasminogen presents barriers to drug development. Lp(a) particles consist of apo(a) and apoB-100 proteins, and they are found only in primates and the hedgehog. The development of LPA transgenic mouse requires the creation of animals that express both human apoB and apo(a) transgenes to achieve assembly of LP(a). An atherosclerosis mouse model would facilitate the study of the disease process and factors influencing it, and further would facilitate the development of therapeutic or preventive agents.

There are several strategies for gene-oriented therapy. For example, the missing or non-functional gene can be replaced, or unwanted gene activity can be inhibited.

Model for Lipid Metabolism and Atherosclerosis

DNX Transgenic Sciences has demonstrated that both CETP/ApoB and ApoB transgenic mice develop atherosclerotic plaques.

Model for apoB-100 Overexpression

The apoB-100 transgenic mice express high levels of human apoB-100. They consequently demonstrate elevated serum levels of LDL cholesterol. After 6 months on a high-fat diet, the mice develop significant foam cell accumulation under the endothelium and within the media, as well as cholesterol crystals and fibrotic lesions.

Model for Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Over Expression

The apoB-100 transgenic mice express the human enzyme, CETP, and consequently demonstrate a dramatically reduced level of serum HDL cholesterol.

Model for apoB-100 and CETP Overexpression

The apoB-100 transgenic mice express both CETP and apoB-100, resulting in mice with a human like serum HDL/LDL distribution. Following 6 months on a high-fat diet these mice develop significant foam cell accumulation underlying the endothelium and within the media, as well as cholesterol crystals and fibrotic lesions.

ApoB100 Transgenic Mice (Order Model #'s: 1004-T (Hemizygotes), B6 (Control))

These mice express high levels of human apoB-100, resulting in mice with elevated serum levels of LDL cholesterol. These mice are useful in identifying and evaluating compounds to reduce elevated levels of LDL cholesterol and the risk of atherosclerosis. When fed a high fat cholesterol diet, these mice develop significant foam cell accumulation underly the endothelium and within the media, and have significantly more complex atherosclerotic lesions than control animals.

Double Transgenic Mice, CETP/ApoB100 (Order Model #: 1007-TT)

These mice express both CETP and apoB-100, resulting in a human-like serum HDL/LDL distribution. These mice are useful for evaluating compounds to treat hypercholesterolemia or HDL/LDL cholesterol imbalance to reduce the risk of developing atherosclerosis. When fed a high fat high cholesterol diet, these mice develop significant foam cell accumulation underlying the endothelium and within the media, and have significantly more complex atherosclerotic lesions than control animals.

ApoE Gene Knockout Mouse

Homozygous apoE knockout mice exhibit strong hypercholesterolemia, primarily due to elevated levels of VLDL and IDL caused by a defect in lipoprotein clearance from plasma. These mice develop atherosclerotic lesions which progress with age and resemble human lesions (Zhang et al., Science 258:46-71, 1992; Plump et al., Cell 71:343-353, 1992; Nakashima et al., Arterioscler Thromp. 14:133-140, 1994; Reddick et al., Arterioscler Tromb. 14:141-147, 1994). These mice are a promising model for studying the effect of diet and drugs on atherosclerosis.

Low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) mediates lipoprotein clearance from plasma through the recognition of apoB and apoE on the surface of lipoprotein particles. Humans, who lack or have a decreased number of the LDL receptors, have familial hypercholesterolemia and develop CHD at an early age.

ApoE Knockout Mice (Order Model #: APOE-M)

The apoE knockout mouse was created by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells to disrupt the apoE gene. ApoE, a glycoprotein, is a structural component of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) synthesized by the liver and intestinally synthesized chylomicrons. It is also a constituent of a subclass of high density lipoproteins (HDLs) involved in cholesterol transport activity among cells. One of the most important roles of apoE is to mediate high affinity binding of chylomicrons and VLDL particles that contain apoE to the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor. This allows for the specific uptake of these particles by the liver which is necessary for transport preventing the accumulation in plasma of cholesterol-rich remnants. The homozygous inactivation of the apoE gene results in animals that are devoid of apoE in their sera. The mice appear to develop normally, but they exhibit five times the normal serum plasma cholesterol and spontaneous atherosclerotic lesions. This is similar to a disease in people who have a variant form of the apoE gene that is defective in binding to the LDL receptor and are at risk for early development of atherosclerosis and increased plasma triglyceride and cholesterol levels. There are indications that apoE is also involved in immune system regulation, nerve regeneration and muscle differentiation. The apoE knockout mice can be used to study the role of apoE in lipid metabolism, atherogenesis, and nerve injury, and to investigate intervention therapies that modify the atherogenic process.

Apoe4 Targeted Replacement Mouse (Order Model #: 001549-M)

ApoE is a plasma protein involved in cholesterol transport, and the three human isoforms (E2, E3, and E4) have been associated with atherosclerosis and Alzheimer's disease. Gene targeting of 129 ES cells was used to replace the coding sequence of mouse apoE with human APOE4 without disturbing the murine regulatory sequences. The E4 isoform occurs in approximately 14% of the human population and is associated with increased plasma cholesterol and a greater risk of coronary artery disease. The Taconic apoE4 Targeted Replacement model has normal plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels, but altered quantities of different plasma lipoprotein particles. This model also has delayed plasma clearance of cholesterol-rich lipoprotein particles (VLDL), with only half the clearance rate seen in the apoE3 Targeted Replacement model. Like the apoE3 model, the apoE4 mice develop altered plasma lipoprotein values and atherosclerotic plaques on an atherogenic diet. However, the atherosclerosis is more severe in the apoE4 model, with larger plaques and cholesterol apoE and apoB-48 levels twice that seen in the apoE3 model. The Taconic apoE4 Targeted Replacement model, along with the apoE2 and apoE3 Targeted Replacement Mice, provide an excellent tool for in vivo study of the human apoE isoforms.

CETP Transgenic Mice (Order Model #: 1003-T)

These animals express the human plasma enzyme, CETP, resulting in mice with a dramatic reduction in serum HDL cholesterol. The mice can be useful in identifying and evaluating compounds that increase the levels of HDL cholesterol for reducing the risk of developing atherosclerosis

Transgene/Promoter: Human Apolipoprotein A-I

These mice produce mouse HDL cholesterol particles that contain human apolipoprotein A-I. Transgenic expression is life-long in both sexes (Biochemical Genetics and Metabolism Laboratory, Rockefeller University, NY City).

A Mouse Model for Abetalipoproteinemia

Abetalipoproteinemia, an inherited human disease characterized by a near-complete absence of apoB-containing lipoproteins in the plasma, is caused by mutations in the gene for microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP). Gene targeting was used to knock out the mouse MTP gene (Mttp). In heterozygous knockout mice (Mttp^(+/−)), the MTP mRNA, protein, and activity levels were reduced by 50% in both liver and intestine. Recent studies with heterozygous MTP knockout mice have suggested that half-normal levels of MTP in the liver reduce apoB secretion. They hypothesized that reduced apoB secretion in the setting of half-normal MTP levels might be caused by a reduced MTP:apoB ratio in the endoplasmic reticulum, which would reduce the number of apoB—MTP interactions. If this hypothesis were true, half-normal levels of MTP might have little impact on lipoprotein secretion in the setting of half-normal levels of apoB synthesis (since the ratio of MTP to apoB would not be abnormally low) and might cause an exaggerated reduction in lipoprotein secretion in the setting of apoB overexpression (since the ratio of MTP to apoB would be even lower). To test this hypothesis, they examined the effects of heterozygous MTP deficiency on apoB metabolism in the setting of normal levels of apoB synthesis, half-normal levels of apoB synthesis (heterozygous Apob deficiency), and increased levels of apoB synthesis (transgenic overexpression of human apoB). Contrary to their expectations, half-normal levels of MTP reduced plasma apoB-100 levels to the same extent (˜25-35%) at each level of apoB synthesis. In addition, apoB secretion from primary hepatocytes was reduced to a comparable extent at each level of apoB synthesis. Thus, these results indicate that the concentration of MTP within the endoplasmic reticulum, rather than the MTP:apoB ratio, is the critical determinant of lipoprotein secretion. Finally, heterozygosity for an apoB knockout mutation was found to lower plasma apoB-100 levels more than heterozygosity for an MTP knockout allele. Consistent with that result, hepatic triglyceride accumulation was greater in heterozygous apoB knockout mice than in heterozygous MTP knockout mice. Cre/loxP tissue-specific recombination techniques were also used to generate liver-specific Mttp knockout mice. Inactivation of the Mttp gene in the liver caused a striking reduction in very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) triglycerides and large reductions in both VLDL/low density lipoproteins (LDL) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Histologic studies in liver-specific knockout mice revealed moderate hepatic steatosis. Currently being tested is the hypothesis that accumulation of triglycerides in the liver renders the liver more susceptible to injury by a second insult (e.g., lipopolysaccharide).

Human Apo B (Apolipoprotein B) Transgene Mice Show Apo B Locus May have a Causative Role Male Infertility

The fertility of apoB (apolipoprotein B) (+/−) mice was recorded during the course of backcrossing (to C57BL/6J mice) and test mating. No apparent fertility problem was observed in female apoB (+/−) and wild-type female mice, as was documented by the presence of vaginal plugs in female mice. Although apoB (+/−) mice mated normally, only 40% of the animals from the second backcross generation produced any offspring within the 4-month test period. Of the animals that produced progeny, litters resulted from <50% of documented matings. In contrast, all wild-type mice (6/6—i.e., 100%) tested were fertile. These data suggest genetic influence on the infertility phenotype, as a small number of male heterozygotes were not sterile. Fertilization in vivo was dramatically impaired in male apoB (+/−) mice. 74% of eggs examined were fertilized by the sperm from wild-type mice, whereas only 3% of eggs examined were fertilized by the sperm from apoB (+/−) mice. The sperm counts of apoB (+/−) mice were mildly but significantly reduced compared with controls. However, the percentage of motile sperm was markedly reduced in the apoB (+/−) animals compared with that of the wild-type controls. Of the sperm from apoB (+/−) mice, 20% (i.e., 4.9% of the initial 20% motile sperm) remained motile after 6 hr of incubation, whereas 45% (i.e., 33.6% of the initial 69.5%) of the motile sperm retained motility in controls after this time. In vitro fertilization yielded no fertilized eggs in three attempts with apo B (+/−) mice, while wild-type controls showed a fertilization rate of 53%. However, sperm from apoB (+/−) mice fertilized 84% of eggs once the zona pellucida had been removed. Numerous sperm from apoB (+/−) mice were seen binding to zona-intact eggs. However, these sperm lost their motility when observed 4-6 hours after binding, showing that sperm from apoB (+/−) mice were unable to penetrate the zona pellucida but that the interaction between sperm and egg was probably not direct. Sperm binding to zona-free oocytes was abnormal. In the apoB (+/−) mice, sperm binding did not attenuate, even after pronuclei had clearly formed, suggesting that apoB deficiency results in abnormal surface interaction between the sperm and egg.

Knockout of the mouse apoB gene resulted in embryonic lethality in homozygotes, protection against diet-induced hypercholesterolemia in heterozygotes, and developmental abnormalities in mice.

Model of Insulin Resistance, Dyslipidemia & Overexpression of Human apoB

It was shown that the livers of apoB mice assemble and secrete increased numbers of VLDL particles.

Example 3. Treatment of Diabetes Type-2 with iRNA

Introduction

The regulation of hepatic gluconeogenesis is an important process in the adjustment of the blood glucose level. Pathological changes in the glucose production of the liver are a central characteristic in type-2-diabetes. For example, the fasting hyperglycemia observed in patients with type-2-diabetes reflects the lack of inhibition of hepatic gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis due to the underlying insulin resistance in this disease. Extreme conditions of insulin resistance can be observed for example in mice with a liver-specific insulin receptor knockout (‘LIRKO’). These mice have an increased expression of the two rate-limiting gluconeogenic enzymes, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and the glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit (G6Pase). Insulin is known to repress both PEPCK and G6Pase gene expression at the transcriptional level and the signal transduction involved in the regulation of G6Pase and PEPCK gene expression by insulin is only partly understood. While PEPCK is involved in a very early step of hepatic gluconeogenesis (synthesis of phosphoenolpyruvate from oxaloacetate), G6Pase catalyzes the terminal step of both, gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis, the cleavage of glucose-6-phosphate into phosphate and free glucose, which is then delivered into the blood stream.

The pharmacological intervention in the regulation of expression of PEPCK and G6Pase can be used for the treatment of the metabolic aberrations associated with diabetes. Hepatic glucose production can be reduced by an iRNA-based reduction of PEPCK and G6Pase enzymatic activity in subjects with type-2-diabetes.

Targets for iRNA

Glucose-6-Phosphatase (G6Pase)

G6Pase mRNA is expressed principally in liver and kidney, and in lower amounts in the small intestine. Membrane-bound G6Pase is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum. Low activities have been detected in skeletal muscle and in astrocytes as well.

G6Pase catalyzes the terminal step in gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. The activity of the enzyme is several fold higher in diabetic animals and probably in diabetic humans. Starvation and diabetes cause a 2-3-fold increase in G6Pase activity in the liver and a 2-4-fold increase in G6Pase mRNA.

Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxykinase (PEPCK)

Overexpression of PEPCK in mice results in symptoms of type-2-diabetes mellitus. PEPCK overexpression results in a metabolic pattern that increases G6Pase mRNA and results in a selective decrease in insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-2 protein, decreased phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity, and reduced ability of insulin to suppress gluconeogenic gene expression.

Materials and Methods

Animals: BKS.Cg-m+/+ Lepr db mice, which contain a point mutation in the leptin receptor gene are used to examine the efficacy of iRNA for the targets listed above.

BKS.Cg-m+/+ Lepr db are available from the Jackson Laboratory (Stock Number 000642). These animals are obese at 3-4 weeks after birth, show elevation of plasma insulin at 10 to 14 days, elevation of blood sugar at 4 to 8 weeks, and uncontrolled rise in blood sugar. Exogenous insulin fails to control blood glucose levels and gluconeogenic activity increases.

The following numbers of male animals (age >12 weeks) would ideally be tested with the following iRNAs:

-   -   PEPCK, 2 sequences, 5 animals per sequence         -   G6Pase, 2 sequences, 5 animals per sequence         -   1 nonspecific sequence, 5 animals         -   1 control group (only injected, no siRNA), 5 animals         -   1 control group (not injected, no siRNA), 5 animals

Reagents: Necessary reagents would ideally include a Glucometer Elite XL (Bayer, Pittsburgh, Pa.) for glucose quantification, and an Insulin Radioimmunoassay (RIA) kit (Amersham, Piscataway, N.J.) for insulin quanitation

Assays:

G6P enzyme assays and PEPCK enzyme assays are used to measure the activity of the enzymes. Northern blotting is used to detect levels of G6Pase and PEPCK mRNA. Antibody-based techniques (e.g., immunoblotting, immunofluorescence) are used to detect levels of G6Pase and PEPCK protein. Glycogen staining is used to detect levels of glycogen in the liver. Histological analysis is performed to analyze tissues.

Administration of iRNA:

iRNA corresponding to the genes described above would be administered to mice with hydrodynamic injection. One control group of animals would be treated with Metformin as a positive control for reduction in hepatic glucose levels.

Experimental Protocol

Mice would be housed in a facility in which there is light from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Mice would be fed ad libidum from 7:00 PM to 7:00 AM and fast from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM.

Day 0: 7:00 PM: Approximately 100 μl blood would be drawn from the tail. Serum would be isolated to measure glucose, insulin, HbA1c (EDTA-blood), glucagon, FFAs, lactate, corticosterone, serum triglycerides.

Day 1-7: Blood glucose would be measured daily at 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM (approx. 3-5 μl; measured with a Haemoglucometer)

Day 8: Blood glucose would be measured daily at 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM. iRNA would be injected between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM

Day 9-20: Blood glucose would be measured daily at 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM.

Day 21: Mice would be sacrificed after 10 hours of fasting.

Blood would be isolated. Glucose, insulin, HbA1c (EDTA-blood), glucagon, FFAs, lactate, corticosterone, serum triglycerides would be measured. Liver tissue would be isolated for histology, protein assays, RNA assays, glycogen quantitation, and enzyme assays.

Example 4: Inhibition of Glucose-6-Phosphatase iRNA In Vivo

iRNA targeted to the Glucose-6-Phosphatase (G6P) gene was used to examine the effects of inhibition of G6P expression on glucose metabolism in vivo.

Female mice, 10 weeks of age, strain BKS.Cg-m+/+ Lepr db (The Jackson Laboratory) were used for in vivo analysis of enzymes of the hepatic glucose production. Mice were housed under conditions where it was light from 6:30 am to 6:30 μm. Mice were fed (ad libidum) during the night period and fasted during the day period.

On day 1, approximately 100 μl of blood was collected from test animals by puncturing the retroorbital plexus. On days 1-7, blood glucose was measured in blood obtained from tail veins (approximately 3-5μ1) using a Glucometer (Elite XL, Bayer). Blood glucose was sampled daily at 8 am and 6 μm.

On day 7 at approximately 2 μm, GL3 plasmid (10 μg) and siRNAs (100 μg G6Pase specific, Renilla nonspecific or no siRNA control) were delivered to animals using hydrodynamic coinjection.

On day 8, GL3 expression was analyzed by injection of luceferin (3 mg) after anaesthesia with avertin and imaging. This was done to control for successful hydrodynamic delivery.

On days 8-10, blood glucose was measured in blood obtained from tail veins (approximately 3-5 ml) using a Glucometer (Elite XL, Bayer).

On day 10, mice were sacrificed after 10 hours of fasting. Blood and liver were isolated from sacrificed animals.

Results: Coinjection of GL3 plasmid and G6Pase iRNA (G6P₄) reduced blood glucose levels for the short term. Coinjection of GL3 plasmid and Renilla nonspecific iRNA had no effect on blood glucose levels.

Example 6 siRNAs Decrease mRNA Levels In Vivo

Male CMV-Luc mice (8-10 weeks old) from Xenogen (Cranbury, N.J.) were administered cholesterol conjugated siRNA (see Table 16).

Animals were injected (tail vein) with a volume of 200-250 μl test solution containing buffer or an siRNA solution. Group 1 received buffer and group 2 received cholesterol conjugated siRNA (ALN-3001) at a dose of 50 mg/kg body weight. Twenty-two hours after injection, animals were sacrificed and livers collected. Organs were snap frozen on dry ice, then pulverized in a mortar and pestle.

For Luciferase mRNA analysis (by the QuantiGene Assay (Genospectra, Inc.; Fremont, Calif.)), approximately 10 mg of tissue powder was resuspended in tissue lysis buffer, and processed according to the manufacturer's protocol. Samples of the lysate were hybridized with probes specific for Luciferase or GAPDH (designed using ProbeDesigner software (Genospectra, Inc., Fremont, Calif.) in triplicate, and processed for luminometric analysis. Values for Luciferase were normalized to GAPDH. Mean values were plotted with error bars corresponding to the standard deviation of the Luciferase measurements.

Results indicated that the level of luciferase RNA in animals injected with cholesterol conjugated siRNA was reduced by about 70% as compared to animals injected with buffer (see FIGS. 6A and 6 b).

In Vitro Activity

HeLa cells expressing luciferase were transfected with each of the siRNAs listed in Table 17. ALN-1000 siRNAs were most effective at decreasing luciferase mRNA levels (˜0.6 nM siRNA decreased mRNA levels to about ˜65% the original expression level, and 1.0 nM siRNA decreased levels to about ˜20% the original expression level); ALN-3001 siRNAs were least effective (˜0.6 nM siRNA had a negligible mRNA levels, and 1.0 nM siRNA decreased levels to about ˜40% the original expression level).

Pharmacokinetics/Biodistribution

Pharmacokinetic analyses were performed in mice and rats. Test siRNA molecules were radioactively labeled with ³³P on the antisense strand by splint ligation. Labeled siRNAs (50 mg/kg) were administered by tail vein injection, and plasma levels of siRNA were measured periodically over 24 hrs by scintillation counting. Cholesterol conjugated siRNA (ALN-3001) was discovered to circulate in mouse plasma for a longer period time than unconjugated siRNA (ALN-3000) (FIG. 7). RNAse protection assays indicated that cholesterol-conjugated siRNA (ALN-3001) was detectable in mouse plasma 12 hours after injection, whereas unconjugated siRNA (ALN-3000) was not detectable in mouse plasma within two hours following injection. Similar results were observed in rats.

Mouse liver was harvested at varying time points (ranging from 0.08-24 hours) following injection with siRNA, and siRNA localized to the liver was quantified. Over the time period tested, the amount of cholesterol-conjugated siRNA (ALN-3001) detected in the liver ranged from 14.3-3.55 percent of the total dose administered to the mouse. The amount of unconjugated siRNA (ALN-3000) detected in the liver was lower, ranging from 3.91-1.75 percent of the total dose administered.

Detection of siRNA in Different Tissues

Various tissues and organs (fat, heart, kidney, liver, and spleen) were harvested from two CMV-Luc mice 22 hours following injection with 50 mg/kg ALN-3001. The antisense strand of the siRNA was detected by RNAse protection assay. The liver contained the greatest concentration of siRNA (˜8-10 μg siRNA/g tissue); the spleen, heart and kidney contained lesser amounts of siRNA (˜2-7 μg siRNA/g tissue); and fat tissue contained the least amount of siRNA (<˜1 μg siRNA/g tissue).

Glucose-6-Phosphatase siRNA Detection by RNAse Protection Assay

Balbc mice were injected with U/U, 3′C/U, or 3′ C/3′ C siRNA (4 mg/kg) targeting glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) (see Table 18). Administration was by hydrodynamic tail vein injection (hd) or non-hydrodynamic tail vein injection (iv), and siRNA was subsequently detected in the liver by RNAse protection assay.

TABLE 18 Test iRNA agents targeting glucose-6-phosphatase siRNA Description U/U No cholesterol; dinucleotide 3′ overhangs on sense and antisense strands 3′C/U dinucleotide 3′ overhangs on sense and antisense strands; cholesterol conjugated to 3′ end of sense strand (mono-conjugate) 3′C/3′C dinucleotide 3′ overhangs on sense and antisense strands; cholesterol conjugated to 3′ end of both sense and antisense strands (bis-conjugate)

Unconjugated siRNA (U/U) delivered by hd was detected by 15 min. post-injection (the earliest determined time-point) and was still detectable in the liver 18 hours post-injection.

Delivery by normal iv administration resulted in the greatest concentration of 3′C/3′C siRNA (the bis-cholesterol-conjugate) in the liver 1 hour post injection (as compared to the mono-cholesterol-conjugate 3′C/3′U siRNA). At 18 hours post injection, 3′C/3′C siRNAs and 3′C/U siRNA were still detectable in the liver with the bis-conjugate at higher levels compared to the mono-conjugate.
